The animated GIF mentioned in the given URL causes Firefox to use 100% of the
CPU, and runs slower than it should.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. View the GIF indicated above

Actual Results:  
100% CPU usage, animation runs slowly

Expected Results:  
Use a reasonable amount of CPU, animation runs at proper speed

In IE6 the animation runs much faster and uses less than 50% CPU. This on an
Athlon 64 3500+ with GeForce 6600GT.
