Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.5
How to reproduce :
go to google reader, read normal feeds (for example reddit)
scroll up and down while the mouse pointer is on the description of the items.
Encountered Behavior:
very slow scrolling. Scrolling down by 1 screen takes about 1 min. While scrolling, the window becomes grayed and you can't change tabs/do anything. It will continue scrolling down, being gray, after I finished scrolling my mouse. CPU flies up to 100%
I tried the following :
- launching firefox with a new empty profile. This does not help at all.
- disabling smooth scrolling. This helps, scrolling is faster (but still behind the mouse input), the window is not grayed. The cpu still fires up to 100%. The feeling is like when you drop frames from a video (very irregular scrolling)
