Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

On Hardy 8.04.1 running Firefox-3 with only one tab open showing a blank page, firefox generates 20+ wakeups per second - according to powertop. Quite high for doing nothing.... Is this somehow related to LP#202106?

 Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

This bug is indeed still valid. I get approximately 60 wakeups per second with Firefox 3.6.10.
