Without running Youtube and js-related tasks it is possible to use the system all day. But with Youtube and js tasks freezing occurs every 1-3 hrs.

Playing Youtube music videos (static picture + music, length 40-70 minutes) in Firefox (as background for other activities on computer) causes sometimes (rather often, up to several times per day) freezing of the system. And only restart through reset button can help. Initially I though that it is related to different Javascript-related tasks (manipulating with complex widgets in Chromium, running heavy gulp tasks through yarn) but it looks they are not the reason (or at least not the main reason). Because right now I have seen the problem when keyboard/mouse was not touched at all. That's why I think this information is rather enough; and I decided to post this bug.
