Public bug reported:
When Firefox (default package) is open the HDD will begin thrashing and
system become unresponsive. Hard boot only way to stop this as I have
left it few hours and thrashing does not stop. Internet activity appears
to stop.
No specific action required to reproduce this except leave Firefox open.
Issue occurs daily.
I have seen this issue reported in several versions but I have only seen
this occur in 18.04.
