I have a problem which is similar to the problems mentioned on this thread. Firefox displays most pages just fine: it puts them up quickly and scrolls them smoothly. But some pages use an enormous amount of CPU (the Gnome CPU meter shows 100%), even when they are not actually being displayed, i.e. are minimized or completely covered. Which obviously interferes with anything else I'm trying to do with the computer It looks like most of this is caused by Adobe's Flash plugin. Sometimes the heavy CPU usage persists even after Firefox is exited; then I have to kill the flash process explicitly. This is on a 32-bit version of Firefox on an AMD 64-bit system. jon -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
