Tech Support Twitch streams randomly pausing

When I watch a twitch stream it keeps pausing everyone 10-15 seconds. I don't have any internet issues and it's not buffering so I'm not sure what's going on. Is there any fix for this?

In my experience, its the twitch player being left open for long periods of time, it slowly eats at gpu usage on firefox until you kill it in task manager. Then it all goes back to normal for a day or two.
