169747 - [Website Testing] extremely high CPU usage leads to poor performance

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Camino Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Michael Bryan Bell]

if you go to the macdevcenter on o'reilly, and open a few tabs chimera's
processur usage goes up to 60-100% and performance dies. Opening 5-6 brings
things to a standstill especially as you try to click between the tabs. Some
oreilly pages will load fine, but the cocoa pages seem to really bring it to a
crawl for some reason.

Michael, please be specific about what you're loading in the additional tabs.

In the future, please file bugs only using the Bugzilla Helper at
[http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?format=guided].

Michael, please be specific about what you're loading in the additional tabs.
------------------------
I don't quite know how to. if you look at what i wrote, and go to the
macdevcenter link i gave under "URL:" and try some of the cocoa links you should
see the behavior i am talking about.

I followed the instructions to the letter as they were given to me by winnie. If
you would prefer i not test any more sits, that is more than fine.

Michael, you're welcome to test sites, but a problem with the site isn't
necessarily a Chimera bug. It would be best if you use the Helper, I think. Thanks.

I get acceptable behaviour with 5 tabs open to various macdevcenter urls.
