Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
Using the Three.js engine (probably unimportant, apart from the fact that it alters the SVG data 60 times a second), when I'm rendering some nodes off-screen, the system has full CPU usage and graphics stop updating.

Re security vulnerability, as it affects systems outside of the current Firefox tab (and Firefox itself) it could be used to crash a system.
