Hi, I have exactly the same symptoms. It does not matter what page is loaded in firefox or whether the safe-mode is on or not, the cpu and disk trashing starts in a minute or two after firefox is launched. Firefox becomes unresponsive and closing it takes about ten seconds. Once closed, cpu and disk calm down.
This problem started to occur a few days ago... My versions are: firefox 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 xulrunner-1.9 1.9~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 -- High CPU Consumption https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215728 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
