729178 - Firefox 10.0.2 loops on Mac OS X 10.6.8

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Axel Rau]

Attachment: call graph 1

After visiting some sites and opening some tabs, I noticed, that Firefox is eating CPU cycles (190%), while idle.

There are no errors in the log.

Closing tabs did not stop the behaviour.
What may be of interest: Both Firefox.app and the user's home are NFS mounted.

Attached are output of top and 2 call graphs, gathered by Apples Activity Monitor.

Can you reproduce this or is that a single event ?

Comment 4

[Axel Rau]

I could reproduce it twice, using my history from yesterday. Both times It took me some time, using several tabs and visiting several sites. In both cases, it started looping while visiting some page on this site:
   https://www.bsi.bund.de/DE/Home/homepage_node.html

Installed add-ons are German Dictionary 2.0.2, DNSSEC Validator 1.1.5 and NoScript 2.3.1
