Description: Video stuttering heavily on high resolutions (eg: 8K), especially on higher speeds (eg: 2x)
Steps to Reproduce:
Steps taken: 1. Installed newest nightly firefox distribution from official site (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/desktop/#nightly); 2. Opened new window and typed in address for the 8K video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=linlz7-Pnvw), pressed enter; 3. Set video resolution to 8K, speed to 2x, and disabled sound and closed captions. Annotations remained active; 4. Played the video by clicking on the play button on the bottom-left corner. Stuttering started immediately, with very significant frame drops. Maximized screen. Stuttering got even worse.

I've had this same issue on every Firefox stable version since at least 64.0 (64 bit), including the most recent version (66.0.1), all 64 bit. 30-fps video seems to take much longer to stutter, and the higher the resolution, the faster the problem shows up. On chrome and chromium-based browsers, the problem has yet to manifest itself.
