190708 - After some usage, Mozilla starts using too much CPU time

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 189718

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Greg K.]

After some indeterminate amount of usage, FizzillaMach/2003012503 starts using
too much CPU usage, averaging over 50% total usage even without any windows open.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Browse some sites
2. Access an SSL IMAP e-mail account and some news servers
3. Continue steps 1 and 2 for some time, occasionally closing all windows and
checking CPU usage.

Actual results:
Mozilla's CPU usage at idle with no windows open rises from minimal to over 50%.

Expected results:
Mozilla's CPU usage at idle should remain mostly constant, and low.

Reproducibility:
Have experienced more than once; have not been able to determine any actual
steps to reproduce, however.
