Firefox Multi-Account Containers result in periodic site logouts

Since installing Multi-Account Tab Containers, sessions (e.g., GMail/GCal/all Google apps, Twitter, GitHub, _etc._) keep getting logged out periodically. It doesn't matter whether they're opened in a particular container group or the default; they eventually get signed out. This is particularly frustrating when it happens in the middle of entering long text or a form.

Disabling FoxyTab made it a little better (longer interval, apparently, between logouts), but it's still happening. I don't have a lot of add-ons installed, but I can list 'em if necessary. I've disabled the ones that would seem to be possibly related.

Help?

SOLVED Well, it must have been an extension/add-on that I wouldn't have suspected, because I turned off even those with faint hints of relationships to tabs or cookies, and the problem is gone.
