299202 - CPU Hogging upon resuming from Standby/Hibernation

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 213637

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[NDPTAL85]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

If Firefox is open to websites that periodically update themselves, such as
news.google.com or my.yahoo.com and the computer is then put to standby or
hibernation will cause Firefox, once the laptop is resumed from
standby/hibernation to hog 99-100% of CPU resources until Firefox is quit or
force quit.

Note: I have filed a similar bug report for Thunderbird. Please don't confuse
one bug report for another, the same issue occurs in both applications.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a Firefox window with a bunch of tabs open to self reloading sites.
2. Put the laptop into standby mode.
3. Resume from standby after about 6 hours. I put my laptop in standby mode when
I go to sleep.

Actual Results:  
100% CPU usage

Expected Results:  
Normal CPU usage
