Firefox stops responding when I click on Related Topics field when composing a new DC post

I create a new blank post. Then I choose a group (I picked Caché). Next I click int the "Related Topics" field. At this point Firefox stops responding. It happens with FF 45.0.1 on 32-bit Windows and with 46.0.b7 on 64-bit Windows.

I'm posting this report using Chrome.

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, this is some nasty JavaScript side effect to a recent change. We detected this in testing and have a fix that will be deployed tomorrow.

Ok, this is fixed in this release but you really have to get Firefox to remove any cached resources from the site otherwise it will continue happening. Once I cleared the "cached web content" in FF the issue went away.

I found the same, i.e. clearing cache was necessary but after having done that my FF no longer stops responding when I go into the tags field of a new post.
