A comment on Firefox 57.0 Released.

I'm on windows 7, the new version seems to keep spawning a process which grinds my machine to a halt.

I've had to open task manager twice now to kill it. Only downloaded it 10 minutes ago.

Try starting Firefox in safe mode in case that's some broken extension:

Sibling comment recommended opening a bug. I concur: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?format=guided#h=b...

sounds like you should file a bug about that so they can be aware of that problem and look into it.
