Firefox CPU load 100% of a CPU thread during the time internet is not accessible

Tor browser 14.5.8 (based on Mozilla Firefox 128.14.0esr) LibreWolf 143.0.3-1 Each uses 100% of a CPU thread on Linux Debian 13 (Trixie) with KDE, while internet is not accessible for hours. I have tried to open new empty tab and close single website tab in Tor browser, but that did not decrease the load. Firefox 140.3.1esr also uses around 100% when i count up all its CPU threads load.

Can anyone reproduce this? Maybe the browser needs to run for some time so the issue is reproducible. If you have idea what to try (i will not use different Firefox version), let me know exact steps.
