Abhijit, you're right scrolling in Chrome "only" uses around 40% or so. I noticed it doesn't have smooth scrolling enabled. After disabling smooth scrolling in Firefox (general.smoothScroll in about:config), CPU usage dropped to about the same level as Chrome. Still extremely high for just scrolling down a page, though.
I tested on the office computer today, which is a Core i7-920 w/ 6GB of RAM and an Nvidia GT 9400 with the proprietary driver installed. I can confirm that it suffers from the same problem (also running Ubuntu 14.04). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1337749 Title: High CPU usage after resizing a window To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1337749/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
