Comment(by mikeperry):

 isis: Are you able to reliable reproduce that? For example by killall -11
 firefox? Because I am not. The hard part of this bug is reproduction. If
 we can reproduce it, we can just try tweaking a few about:config prefs and
 see what happens (for example, browser.sessionstore.max_entiries sounds
 promising). Those prefs did not work for torbutton (they aren't effective
 immediately), but we don't give a fuck about that anymore and they may now
 be enough for us.

 Removing the Torbutton session store filter might make this easier to
 reproduce.. The most sure-fire way to do that, we need to remove these two
 lines from Torbutton's chrome.manifest:
 component {aef08952-b003-4697-b935-a392367e214f}
 components/tbSessionStore.js
 contract @torproject.org/torbutton-ss-blocker;1
 {aef08952-b003-4697-b935-a392367e214f}
