Firefox Quantum freezes for 5-15 seconds when opening a new tab or switching to it.
Not only I tried a fresh reinstall, I tried resetting all settings, safe-mode, rebooting, disabling hardware acceleration, upping the amount of processes FF uses, ALL the solutions the questions normally had... you name it.
This won't be solved by any of the other solutions I found here or anywhere else.
EVERY SINGLE TIME I open a new tab, FF Quantum (version 57, up to date as of today November 16th) freezes for 5 to 15 seconds. If I have a youtube video opened for example, the sound keeps playing (so the video is still playing on the "background") but I can't click anywhere or do anything, can't close the browser either if I don't open the task manager and shut down the process.
It's getting REALLY annoying, but I want to get a fix before I definitely decide to swap to Chrome. Please, don't make me switch to Chrome.

I tried . . . safe-mode
Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox. Try Safe websites. Is the problem still there?
