[Bug 107093] System freezes (possibly Gecko)

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

I experience this bug since at least Herd 5. 
At one moment in time it was quite rare, now it is consistently appearing, sometime even after few seconds.
Firefox -safe-mode doesn't change anything.
Other Gecko based browsers (Epiphany, Galeon) are affected.
Non Gecko based (Dillo) works fine.

95% of the time the freeze is not "hard" (mouse cursor moving, alt-sys
keys recognised). The remaining 5% can only be recovered by hard power
down.

The freeze seems to be site dependant (launchpad being one of the
worst), but so far I was unable to correlate it to any particular event.
I have experienced freezes without any user interaction or network
activity.

Any other networks apps I tried did not show any similar problem.
