Do I read the profile correctly that most of the time (80%) is used in the poll() function in libc.so.6 (Linux system C standard library)? That would seem to confirm the theory really the drawing/synchronizing on the screen of the progress bar. There is also a similar bug specifically for Linux at bug 854093.
Is the disabling of network needed to reproduce the bug or is it only to get the progressbar visible for a extended amount of time to capture the profile? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1012858 Title: "Sending of message failed" dialog needs 100% of one CPU as long as it is open. Status in Mozilla Thunderbird: Confirmed Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Priority: Low How to reproduce: - Attach a large file to a message to make the sending process need enough time for the third step. - press the "send" button - Interrupt the internet connection before the sending of the message can be completed Problem: The Dialog that pops up now telling the message could not be sent creates 100% CPU load for one CPU. What was to be expected: The dialog pops up and does not need any CPU power until a button is clicked.
