Hi,
I search and don`t see that there is topic about my problem yet and
don`t know is this here...
I`m using fresh FC3 reinstalled for week and updated, problem is that
something like to eat my pc power and I found that it is firefox... New
firefox when opened couple tabs (last 5) and all try to download some
site was fulling my memory/processor, top of the "top":
19.0 10.1 2:10.66 firefox-bin
10.2 50.3 11:52.26 X
and load start to fullfill: load average: 5.31, 3.43, 1.98
Last time load was go so high that something kill some process and pc
freeze. Only reboot help...
So I`m thinking what to do, I have all updated etc. Start to think to
compile maybe by my self ff. Don`t know what to do...
Pc is year old Toshiba Satellite with p4 and 256ram.
Attached is a testcase that shows high cpu usage for both firefox and mozilla.
It contains a few animated gifs. I resize my browser so the bottom part of the
page, including the animated gif in it, is outside the window. There are still
4 instances of the same gif visable. CPU usage in this case is just a few %.
Now when I scroll the bottom part into view so that the 5th instance of the gif
becomes visible, cpu usage rises to 30% or 40%!
If other people can reproduce this I can file a bugzilla...
