it's always been bad but now it's gotten worse -- over the last few

"top" shows that the combo of those two programs is regularly
chewing up from 100 to 150 per cent of my CPU (if not more). is this
normal? is this what others are seeing? because if firefox 3 turns
out to be the same kind of processor hog, it's going to be time to
dump firefox for good.
"100 to 150 per cent of my CPU", doesn't make a lot of sense, are you
sure it means what you think it means?
It makes sense if you have hyperthreading or a multi-core system.
Top gives processor percentages in terms of a single processor, so on a
busy multicore machine you can hit 300-400% CPU.
