WHAT DID I DO: I was testing my game and accidentally hovered over a bookmark on the bookmarks bar, and I saw that the FPS count dropped to 30. I tried to open the Firefox main menu, search engine selection menu and address bar suggestions, and the same thing happened. This also happens when I hover over an icon in the Windows taskbar. WHAT HAPPENED: FPS dropped to 30-40. WHAT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED: FPS stays at the previous level. While decreasing FPS for menus is somewhat ok, tooltips must be drawn entirely in background. POSSIBLE CAUSE: Switching active window to the menu/tooltip. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Aero is disabled.

(In reply to Dão Gottwald [:dao] from comment #1) > I cannot reproduce this. It appears that the bug occurs only when Aero is disabled. Try to disable Aero.
