While I hate to say it, the most likely culprit here is a badly-coded ad (almost certainly resulting in a memory leak that will slow your browser's process as a whole, especially if it doesn't sandbox tabs - I'm not terribly familiar with Palemoon myself). We try to make sure the worst offenders are removed but these ones are hard to pin down since their effects don't really show up until a single page has been sitting for a while and even then, not consistently. Next time it happens, if you happen to notice one or more ads that seem to be the cause (maybe they're frozen or otherwise misbehaving), please click the Report Ad button to send a report off to our ad partners. Thanks!
