User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:13.0) Gecko/20120422 Firefox/13.0a2
Build ID: 20120422042011

Steps to reproduce:

anything. firefox is unresponsive


Actual results:

drag and drop bookmarks, scrolling page, bm properites - everything is hanging. Many seconds before action takes place.


Expected results:

everything should take less than a second as usual. 
ff aurora is only using 400-480 meg of ram, but >28 % of dual cpu.
don't know if it is kernel update or aurora update, but it's just the last 24 hours.

with next update, only change is more memory is being used.

Everything is Slow. Scrolling page, Bookmark menu navigation. On a laptop, I am Always way ahead of the 'highlight' of the mouse cursor.. Way slow and memory is way up to 500-600k with cpu 24-49+%.. Not good.
the cpu and memory would not be a big deal if the browser with 4 windows and Far less tabs than I am use to using was not Lagging so much.

Very annoying.
