I am unable to access (http://en.playpw.com) (returns "The connection was reset") since upgrading to Aurora 50 but am able to access the forums (http://en.playpw.com/forum/search.php?d ... Forum_Post).

It also doesn't load in Nightly but loads fine in Edge.

With UA spoofing seems to load page on both Aurora50.0a2 and Nightly51.0a1.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.c ... 173199#c31: (about the relationship between Firefox and Tor)

Our primary goal is to un-fork the Tor Browser. If we change their patches in a way that is unacceptable to the Tor Project, we're not achieving that goal.

and Bug 1260929 - (meta_tor) [META] Tor Patch Uplifting

Pretty interesting.

Just when I thought things couldn't get weirder... Thanks, I guess that means its a site issue?

"I don't have any sluggishness."

I could be wrong, but I think it's having various issues with Twitter. 1. Twitter tab crashes (maybe not just Twitter) on startup. It's being discussed in the bugtracker. 2. I'm wondering if just having a Twitter tab open, which I usually do, for a period of time is causing it to become sluggish when I return from being away.

However, I might have made some changes in the config that had to do with various backround tabs and settings or idle stuff... that I didn't know what I was messing with fully. But... that was kind of a while ago... and this only started happening with the flip to 51.

Twitter / Facebook connected to 5000 of your closest friends could be a problem. Shut down your Social crap if you can stand being cut off from the world, restart Firefox and see if the problem exists...

#1290280 [Core:Untriaged]-[e10s] Crash in IPCError-browser | ShutDownKill , Tab crashes on startup on Windows10IP Virtual Machine [Win]

I have a similar tab crash on start up and shutdown crash since 50 if e10s was enabled , but this is on VM(slower than actual machine).

There are some new info for the overhead using Ublock Origin, you may want to use Ublock Origin 1.8.3b0 to see how's the performance now.

[Jgr9]

Yeah, I have both the tab crash, though not using VM, and Ublock Origin with my own customizations. Though that particular Ublock issue mentioned has been a thing for a while I think. Though, I certainly can't say that it's not what's causing the other issues. Would not be surprised if it is.
