Default [Fixed] Firefox using very much CPU
Hi all!
Firefox is suddenly using 90-100% CPU, when just viewing the main page of PC Help Forum. I really don't understand, I just downloaded the latest version 1.5, and reinstalled Firefox.
See attachement for more info.
I'm on XP Pro, but before Firefox didn't use this much CPU.

It's fine for me on FF 1.5. Try using the Help -> Report Broken Website tool, and see if they answer.

Bluefish, I've noticed that Firefox 1.5 uses more CPU% than 1.0.4 ( I just updated to see if i had the problem) overall and i've noticed that yes this site is taking up more cycles than the average site (not counting while a page is downloading). Did this just start, it might be that snow effect that the page is displaying (which i thought was cool by the way.

What CPU are you using as this will greatly vary the % that is being used, as it stands, Firefox is bouncing between 06 and 35% of my CPU and i'm running a 3000+ Athlon XP. I did notice a jump for a bit though.
