This is ff 13.0.1 on x86_64 fedora 17.

Any clues? Anyone see anything similar?
50% !!!???
Huh.... consider yourself LUCKY!
On my old unicore amd64 (3.7GHz "equivalent :) :) /smirk/)
it escalates  sometimes to 95% of cpu.

top tends to be confusing that way.
Note this line from my machine at a time it said FF was at 87.8%:
Cpu(s): 13.6%us, 33.7%sy,  0.0%ni, 52.5%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.2%si,  0.0%st

That was really 87.4% of the 13.6% user time that was consumed.
