I seem to have enough windows / tabs open, that when it starts up on OS X it causes a kernel panic ~ 50% time and brings down the whole machine. If it manages to start everything is OK until I try to restart it. Of course, this is technically a problem with OS X but ... no other app manages to do this.

Out of curiosity, how many windows/tabs? I routinely launch FF with dozens of windows/hundreds of tabs and I've never had macOS kernel panic in that case.
