179566 - Calendar causes moz to chew 100% CPU when editing event

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Calendar :: General, defect)

Description

[Dave O'Neill]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021017
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021017

When attempting to edit an event (via either right-click and "Edit Selected
Event" or double-click), Mozilla CPU usage (as measured by 'top' on Linux) jumps
to 90%-100%, and persists at this usage after event editing is complete. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select event to edit
2. Double-click or right-click and "Edit Selected Event"
3. Check CPU utilization of mozilla-bin process via 'top' or other monitoring
program.

Actual Results:  
Event is created correctly, but CPU usage by Mozilla is now near 100% and
remains there until the calendar window is closed.

Expected Results:  
Same results, but without the excessive CPU usage.  

A workaround is to close and then reopen the Calendar window (or possibly, all
calendar windows) and the excessive CPU utilization goes away.
