firefox 59.0 - 64 bits - inestability - the page is not completely displayed
today I updated to firefox 59.0 - 64 bits in my Windows 7 machine, since then the things get weird.
At first the pages loads ok but after a while they stop to show correctly or they doesn't show correctly from open. I couldn't detect the exact cause that triggers this.
I have more often the strange behavior when over a URL link with right click (popup menu) use "open link in new tab"
Seems to affect more often the pages based in Atlassian Confluence product (wiki, based in java?)
I restarted several times firefox, did the troubleshooting refresh firefox but the
This doesn't happen in my mackbook also with firefox 59.0 but on DArwin 17.4.0

hi, thank you for reporting this issue and providing screenshots. we're currently investigating the issue in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1435472
can you test if the following change can work around the problem?: enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named gfx.direct2d.disabled. double-click it and change its value to true and restart firefox once for this to take effect.

I was having the same issue as the OP, which started with the update to 59.0 (64-bit), and setting the gfx.direct2d.disabled value to "true" fixed it. Is this a permanent fix or a temporary workaround?
it was more of a step diagnose what's going on at this point. do you have cleartype font rendering disabled on windows?

Yeah; I hate ClearType or any other form of anti-aliasing on small text; it bothers my eyes.
thanks, i hope having this info will already help the developers getting a fix in place for the next version...
after gfx.direct2d.disabled = true I didn't detect the problem anymore (up to now)
as for the ClearType I guess I have it disabled I atatched the Performace Options dialog of Windows 7 (from System Properties, "Advanced" tab)
firefox 59.0.2 works fine with gfx.direct2d.disabled restored to its previous state
gfx.direct2d.disabled = false
