Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
Hi,
After upgrading Ubuntu 7.10 to 8.04 LTS, What i observed is, firefox 3.0 consuming more CPU. It also slows down the system performance. Previously i was using firefox. which was good.
Build details are as follows:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008061015 Firefox/3.0
When scrolling the web page, it consume much more cpu. Here is the CPU consumptions when i did the top.
Pid UID PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
6286 fazlur 20 0 362m 163m 24m R 76 8.1 607:17.69 firefox
This is not a one time consumption. Till the time the firefox is running, it consumes more CPU. I have installed some language related extensions like inidc input extension, Lipikar, Padma and other extensions like Server spy, show ip and ofcourse session manager.

It is also observed that the cpu consumption is more when a telugu language sites are access. like www.eenadu.net, when i closed those tabs the firefox was consuming very less cpu.
