Hello,

When trying to load the page https://vidyowebrtc.web.cern.ch/ (webRTC), Firefox completely freezes when the tab is loading. Since it's a freeze and not a crash I have no crash reports... I've tried to clear the cache, or to start in safe mode, to no help.

Note that it is different from this question: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1167290 since I don't experience a crash per se but a complete freeze.

I don't remember experiencing this before, probably before updating to 56.0...

Regards, B

For some reason the issue went away before I even updated... Weird! Thanks anyway!
