Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
On my Ubuntu 8.04 system I've noticed that when visiting sites with dynamic Canvas elements the CPU usage is hot, while using Firefox 2 the problem does not exists.
This affects the performance of interactive or animated pages that utilizes Canvas.

maybe this is because you are using the non-free nvidia driver? have
you tried the free alternatives?
