Is anyone else having problems with Firefox on FC39 with XFCE recently? After rock solid operation for a long time, in the last 2 or 3 weeks the UI has been fouling up every day or two when I do some seemingly mundane operation in Firefox. A couple of times Firefox has crashed after a few seconds. The foul ups sometimes only affect the Firefox windows, and other windows still work OK. Sometimes the whole desktop fouls up, and I have to switch to a text only screen and kill Firefox. That restores normal desktop operation for all the other windows.

I don't know if it's related or not, but yesterday evening on my workstation (f39, gnome) Firefox was maxing out one cpu for minutes.  I exited Firefox.  The maxing out of a cpu continued.  ksysguard showed a Firefox process at the top of the process list (sorted by cpu usage), even long after exiting Firefox.  I had to kill that process manually.  This all repeated a second time.  Also curious, I saw a several processes with names containing "akonadi" and strings relating to e-mail/calendar.  After exiting Firefox again and exiting Thunderbird, the maxing out of a cpu stopped and has not since recurred, though I see 19 different akonadi processes now in a "ps" output.  Firefox is the only browser I use, and Thunderbird is the only e-mail client and calendar that I use.  I do not access e-mail via browser.

Are my problems and Steve's related and/or connected?
