location bar autocomplete is using unneccesary CPU cycles. 100% CPU. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to www.osnews.com
2.Double click the location bar, and type os. 
3.Wait for 5 seconds.

Actual Results:  
The CPU usage spikes to 100% all the time.

Expected Results:  
should have close to none CPU usage, because the drop down bar for possible
autocompletions is already shown and I'm not doing anything.

You have to wait for 5 seconds before the CPU spikes to 100%. You can count from
1 to 10 after step 2.
