--- Comment #5 from peter.henderson at ieee.org ---
I've also had the same problem.  It persisted from FreeBSD 10 to an
installation, from a USB memstick of FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p9 and a complete
rebuild of all my ports.  Most of these ports were built using the default
configurations.  In particular,  the default configuration was used for
firefox, although I've subsequently changed it by turning off Pulse Audio. 
This was to restore the sound I'd lost in the reinstallation, but this did not
fix the freezing.

It may be useful to know, a site it consistently freezes on is www.freebsd.org.
 Hence, this comment is being submitted via chrome.  Also, when quitting, after
such a freeze, the firefox icon on my kde4 tray persists for for a minute or
more and firefox will not restart until the icon disappears, complaining that
there is another firefox process running.  To get rid of the icon, I have to
click on the icon quit option twice.
