 My Tor Browser keeps freezing and crashing minutes after launching. It is
 completely unusable. I run Linux Mint 18.00 (64 bit).

 Details: I have the latest stable version of Tor.


 I launch Tor and a webpage opens. It is then usually a minute or less
 before it freezes and I have to force quit. This happens every time I
 launch Tor. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Tor Browser with the same
 result.

 The issue '''is''' repeatable and I can cause it to happen:
 The amount of time before it freezes depends on what websites I access,
 for example if I stay on Tor Project homepage it takes a few more minutes
 to crash. If I open The Guardian news site it crashes almost immediately,
 as it does if I have more than one tab open.

 I get notified by Lebevite that the window is not responding and I must
 force quit. (My Lebevite is up-to-date and I followed the FAQ guidelines
 first before opening a new ticket -couldn't find a similar issue already
 up.)
