> =E2=80=A6 an intermittent issue but happens about 10% of the time.

Maybe less than five percent in my case. It's amongst the issues that cause=
 me
to hesitate before switching (from Waterfox) to Firefox.=20

First noticed months ago. I have a vague recollection that it began at or
around the time of Firefox Quantum; 57.=20

If the issue had been noticeable with Firefox 56.0.2 or less, I'd almost
certainly have a clearer memory of it. NB all my production (non-test) uses=
 of
56.0.2 and less had e10s disabled, which makes me wonder=C2=A0=E2=80=A6=20

=E2=80=A6 whether this bug 225233 will be reproducible only with e10s enabl=
ed.

----

In the most recent incident, this morning, I used a first instance of Firef=
ox,
in safe mode, to create a new profile, then launch the new profile in a new
browser in normal mode.=20

Result:=20

- neither of the initial tabs (welcome, privacy notice) loaded

- the third tab (a pasted URL) did load, without difficulty.=20

To follow:=20

- screenshots

- the profile, and the cache directory.=20

When there's nothing more than a spinning asynchronous progress indicator:=
=20

- I know (from experience) to not bother with a reload

- I'll get the content to load only if I copy the address,=20
  then go there in a new tab.=20
