Same Issue for me, I'm on Ubuntu 12.04 (Unity) with Firefox 17.0.1 instaled. after the latest update of the gnome-settings-deamon (3.4.2-0ubuntu0.5,3.4.2-0ubuntu0.6) FireFox starts taking 100% of my CPU, periodically.

I'm on Ubuntu 12.04 (Unity) with Firefox 17.0.1 instaled. after the latest update of the gnome-settings-deamon (3.4.2-0ubuntu0.5,3.4.2-0ubuntu0.6) FireFox starts taking 100% of my CPU, periodically.

I have tried various things:

1) Disabled All the non standard extensions = No change to the CPU Usage
2) Disabled Flash PlugIns (also updated same time) = No change to CPU Usage
3) Disabled "Global Menu integration 3.6.4) Extension = HOOOA CPU OK !!!
