Help Firefox causes lockups on my Nexus 10

Hi everyone,

Got a Nexus 10 about a month ago, been reliable aside from this problem with Firefox. Maybe once or twice a week it will lock up, always when Firefox is actively loading a page. Have yet to have the same issue with any other app. There are no error messages, have to hold down the power button to get the tablet to reboot.

Have tired reinstalling the app, making sure it's up to date, clearing cache, clearing data, and removing addons. Anyone have other ideas?

Yeah, I modified some of my kernel memory parameters and got Boat Browser to do that.

Basically, what I'm saying is that either Firefox has a bug or isn't compatible with every device's memory management.

I stopped using Firefox because it seemed to me to always improve, degrade, improve, degrade in a cycle, following its updates.
