All,

  In Thunderbird 128.3.3esr if I check the RSS Recent Package feed from Arch, Thunderbird hangs showing the check is continually ongoing and never finishes. This takes a continual 143% CPU (about 1/3 of the 4-core i-7)

   It gets the Recent Packages just fine, but never stops.

To close this out, I did get it fixed. The following seems to have been the issue. After working fine for several years, the "Recent packages feed" would hang continually checking itself.

Original Setup:

Recent packages folder
https://archlinux.org/feeds/packages/
  - folder for Core-testing
  - folder for Extra-testing

A few weeks ago, due to a change somewhere, likely the 115 - 128 esr Thunderbird updates, this problem occurs. (behaves like infinite recursion began happening) To solve the issue, I have the same setup, but now I've changed:

  archlinux.org/feeds/packages/

to

  archlinux.org/feeds/packages/all/stable-repos/

Core and Extra Testing remain folders thereunder. Behavior is now identical to the original and the hang is gone.
