Crashes happen when I quickly open a number of item pages from www.ebay.com. All crash dump reports have: 

   EMPTY: no crashing thread identified; corrupt dump

in the title when retrieved from crash-stats.mozilla.com.

A related problem is that sometimes Firefox becomes non-responsive for several seconds rather than crashing. The task manager shows it is taking between 45 % and 55 % of the CPU. I suspect FF is having problems doing garbage collection.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

No more crashes after restarting in safe mode for four days, so I rebooted in normal mode and disabled all extensions other than Adblock Plus 2.1.2 . I have been running like this for more than a day and still no crashes.

Is there any way of finding out which Extension or Extensions is causing the crash besides enabling Extensions one at a time?

Note that I have not enabled hardware acceleration. Flash and other add-ins are up to date. I have uninstalled Java.

Thank you, Paul

When 15.0.1 came out, I restarted with Adblock Plus 2.1.2; Certificate Patrol 2.0.14; and History Deleter 2.4.1 enabled and still no crashes.
