uBlock Origin 1.0.0.1 hangs Firefox when opening planet.mozilla.org

uBlock is causing the browser to hang (whether e10s is enabled or not) when loading this page. Doesn't happen when loading the page from a local file, so is probably a network issue (I am on a fairly slow network).

I can send you my config file if needed.

This is with the latest win32 nightly build on Win8.1 64bit.

no problems here loading the page, Nightly and Beta.

no problems here. Using Medium blocking mode.

Hmm, might be exacerbated by my slow connection (am on vacation and latencies are very high).

You will have to make the case that uBlock is the issue. See CONTRIBUTING.

On first try, it hung, and I had to force close the browser, on second try, it loaded instantly.
I have tried a dozen times with uBlockO disabled : all instances loaded instantly.
I have tried a dozen times with uBlockO enabled : 3 times the tab froze.
(EDIT: Cleared the browser cache between each retry)

On first try, it hung

is it on v1.0.0.1 or v1.1.0.0

[Betsy25]

v1.1.0.0 b6 from AMO.

I don't even know what "hangs" exactly mean in the current context. Please, do not hold on explaining exactly, in details anything, I won't spend time guessing what is an issue. I can't think of any other way to emphasize more than what is in there. Also, I should not have to ask for settings, CONTRIBUTING already says clearly that any settings different than defaults MUST be provided.

Using the browser console, I don't see anything special, only it sometimes takes quite an amount of response times for certain images there, so in my case, I don't really think uBlockO has anything to blame, might be pure coincidence.

EDIT: Perhaps the OP loaded up the site for the first time using uBlockO, switched uBlockO off, and releaded. Revisiting the site without clearing the browser cache loads instantly, i think it's solely the crappy response times of the image servers.

An example of bad information:

latest win32 nightly build

Just spell out the exact build (ex: 43.0a1 (2015-08-17)), I don't want to have go fishing on what is the "latest nightly build" on someone's specific computer. Yes, it will take 10 more seconds to open About and cut and paste, but it saves me time because I won't have to write yet another comment to extract that information from submitters. (above is my "latest nightly build").
