Bug Description
Binary package hint: thunderbird
I have thunderbird installed with lightning and it's consistently hogging CPU (50% of a dual core). This heats my system up, kills my battery life and causes my fans to run high. Not sure what I can provide to help pinpoint the problem. Thanks in advance
I guess I can provide that I have a gmail imap account and a hotmail imap account set up. This does not require me to send a message or do anything really, just opening thunderbird and letting it check mail jacks the CPU usage up permanently.
