863434 - Rotation takes 5 times as long in Beta as in current Firefox for screen to reach full width

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 847348

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[donrhummy]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:20.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/20.0
Build ID: 20130326150557

Steps to reproduce:

In Firefox Beta and Firefox loaded numerous websites and then rotated between portrait and landscape. (On a Nexus 4)


Actual results:

In Firefox Beta, after rotation, you'll see:

1. The browser and screen rotate

2. A 1+ second delay where (moving from portrait to landscape) the web page is only 1/3 the width and there's just gray to the right or (moving to landscape from portrait) the web page is too wide for the screen before finally sizing back down.

In Firefox, the instant the rotation of Firefox occurs, the web page is also properly sized.



Expected results:

It should have had zero delay after rotation.

There's no delay in the following browsers:

1. Firefox Release
2. Chrome
3. Opera Mobile
4. Dolphin
