Firefox 123.0 (64-bit) periodically grinds to a halt, freezes.

Current Firefox update periodically freezes for no apparent reason, has to be restarted.  Win 10.

Same behavior on Ubuntu, where Firefox is installed as a Snap package. This has been a problem since the release of Ubuntu 23.04. At the moment, the whole system usually freezes on YouTube. All that remains is to hard reboot the system, but then no logs can be found.

However, there are no problems with Chrome. Monitoring showed that the system's graphic resources are being actively used. I have integrated graphics...

It’s strange, but I often watch videos and everything is fine there. Same codecs, same resolution.

I have this on 131.0.2 (64-bit) snap on Ubuntu 24.04

It mostly comes when doing a 'Reply all' in the Outlook web version. Typing grinds to a halt, while clicking element in the page remains snappy. Closing all tabs and typing in the location bar of an empty tab stays extremely slow.

I'm unsure on how to test where the problem comes from. I only have a few addons, most notably Adblock Origin and Bitwarden.
