Firefox 57 Quantum does not finish loading pages

I recently updated my Firefox to 57 Quantum on a Linux Mint 18.2 64bit with Mate desktop.

However, FF turned out to be unusable, due to it not completely loading some pages. It doesn't hang and apparently it thinks the page is finished (favicon shown and so on), but the pages are not completely loaded, or not completely shown. Some example pages which exhibit this behavior are the login to gmail ( https://accounts.google.com ), google calendar (new version), and TeX StackExchange ( https://tex.stackexchange.com/ ).

Everything was fine before the update.

I've tried several things thus far, all to no avail.

- To clear all FF history (cache, cookies, everything).

- To update it in other computers (the result was the same).

- To "Refresh Firefox" from the Troubleshooting menu.

- To completely remove FF (as in https://askubuntu.com/a/16763/496862 ) and reinstall it.

So, I'm really at a loss here. Does anyone know what might be happening, and how to fix it?
