65510 - Very slow javascript pulldown menu

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 65509

(Core :: JavaScript Engine, defect)

Description

[Mox Soini]

(always reproducible)
I'm using
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; m18) Gecko/20010112

and I've noticed that the javascript-enabled pages are sometimes very sluggish.
The "test-case" for this is http://www.helsinginsanomat.fi where one can access
the pulldown menus of the "always on top" menubar (gray colored). The menu seems
to be written in javascript (only) and works smoothly with IE and NN, but with
Mozilla it brings my 200Mhz pentium to knees for 3-5 seconds.

I haven't noticed any build that would have fixed this one (haven't tested them
all tho :)

This could be related to bug 40988 or some others, but I couldn't really find a
matching one...

Thanks for the great browser !
