I have recently tried the Firefox 3.1 Beta 3 binary from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-beta.html - so far the problem has not recurred. (However, I am using a 32-bit build on a 64-bit machine, and some of the plugins such as Flash are disabled.) Is there a 64-bit version of that versi

I definitely agree with Christopher that this bug has become a sort of basket case where all problems having to do with poor performance are placed. It appears that there are at least 5-6 potentially separate problems all together in here. I also haven't heard from anyone claiming to be a develop

This has been solved for me by installing Nvidia 180.25. I have a Quadro FX570 on an HP 8510w notebook. Suspend/resume works, no sluggishness or other issues with Flash sites and no more CPU maxing either. On Tue, 2009-02-03 at 15:42 +, alzekak wrote: > Had the same issue on 8.10 for a whi
