FF 67 released webrender to stable, but only for Windows 10 per the release notes. Will WebRender fix the CPU taxing problem, and will that be released for macOS in a subsequent release?

Fix for that is scheduled for june 2019 https://github.com/orgs/FirefoxGraphics/projects/1 (I'm just waiting for this too, I don't know anything more about it, I hope they will really ship this on time)

You can try it yourself:

about:config

gfx.webrender.all -> true

restart browser
