Whenever i open a new tab in Firefox while having a second monitor connected but disabled, Firefox freezes for a second.

If i unplug the monitor the problem stops and if i enable the monitor the problem also stops.

Running Firefox in safe mode didn't fix the issue.

I'm on a laptop if it is any help.

Does this behavior occur in FF73 (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/developer/) and FF74 (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/74.0a1/releasenotes/)

Maybe it's a bug that's been corrected in future versions.

In the developer version and the nightly and the behavior persists in both.
