With the latest version of Firefox and No Script, I get a temporary freeze lasting about 10 seconds accompanied by a spinning wheel and the browser title saying "not responding".
When I completely disable the extension, the problem goes away. I also tested by removing all extension except for No Script.
So far, this is only a problem on Ancestry.com which I use often. Usually happens on lists of DNA results or fact pages for ancestors.
It doesn't happen on Facebook, Google, or other common sites.

When this issue occurs, do you see anything related in the Browser Console? (Ctrl-Shift-J)
(if you don't know what's related, turn off CSS warnings and post everything else you see)

This happens twice while trying to load a page on Ancestry.com:
[NoScript XSS] Sanitized suspicious upload to [https://36f1f23d.mpstat.us/###DATA###%7 ... %2Fjs%2Fv2
Did a Google search on mpstat.us and mfcreative.com. Found another user complaining of delays caused by mfcreative.com.

Re: 10-second freeze, not responding, spinning wheel
Can you just block the request with ABE?
If that doesn't fix the problem by itself, also add this line to NoScript Options > Advanced > XSS > Exceptions
Code: Select all
Site .mpstat.us
Deny
Code: Select all
^https?://(?:[^/:]+\.)?mpstat\.us/
