I typically leave Firefox open with multiple tabs. Every day Firefox becomes
very sluggish and I have to restart the browser due to very sluggish behavior of
the browser. CPU usage is noted at 65%+ when this is noticed.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open browser with multiple tabs
2.After approximately 24 hours the CPU usage is noticed at 65%+ and browser
sluggish to unresponsive.
3.
Actual Results:
Firefox almost unusable and has to be restarted.
Expected Results:
Firefox should have remained responsive.
NOTE: I do have the Forecastfox module running and do have bookmarkds to some
live bookmarks. Could either of these be the culprit???
I don't have Forecastfox or the live bookmarks you mentioned, HOWEVER I still get this problem as well. CPU usage for Firefox is 30-40% when idle for me.
I have a Mac Mini 1.66GHz Dual core intel, with 1Gb of RAM.
Note also that Safari does this for me as well, yet no other applications do this. Is this just a web browser thing!? Maybe a problem with OS X?
I'm getting the same problem as well, and I've taken all steps I can think of to rule out extensions or anything third party on my computer by:
running in safe mode
doing a fresh install of Firefox (with a new profile and no extensions)
running firefox on a brand new install of OS X
I'm running on a Macbook 2Ghz Core Duo with 2GB of RAM, and Mac OS X 10.5.3. However, I'm able to reproduce on 10.5.2 as well.
