I had this issue regularly occurring when playing videos in Firefox. I switched to Safari and that issue completely went away. Sometimes I'll check back on newer Firefox builds and unfortunately that issue persists.

With enough time and resources, I wonder if we'll one day see a Rust game engine that can outperform these projects.
