Hi Cristóbal, I'm also experimenting this type of issues, especially on slow machines. Although stability with Firefox 60 was considerably inproved in the latest JAWS 2018 update, it is still far from the smooth experience before Firefox 57, which yet requires me to use Chrome most of the time, especially on my netbook.
