Firefox freezes/stall/slow after idle for a while
After some time of idle, i.e. leave the computer for some time, say over night. No suspend or hibernate. Back to the computer next morning, unlock. Then Firefox appears frozen/hang, can't switch tab (clicking tab has no response, but not really frozen, sometimes responses after dozens of seconds of lag), page also has no response. Then after around half to 2 minutes, everything back to normal.
During the "hang", CPU load is load, no memory stress (swapping/paging).
Environment:
Firefox 123.0 (64-bit), (actually it bothered me for years)
Linux 6.6.15-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.6.15-2 (2024-02-04) x86_64 GNU/Linux
``` lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Debian Description: Debian GNU/Linux trixie/sid Release: n/a Codename: trixie ``` Not related to particular Linux and/or kernel version.
CPU: Intel or AMD, not related. RAM: 64GB/96GB, free memory more than enough.
I will gather more detailed info later.

oops, typo:

should be:
During the "hang", CPU load is low, no memory stress (swapping/paging).
How about trying a live usb stick of Deb or another Distro to see if you have the same issue.
