Thx Ruben. second day in a row, i arrive and FF is frozen! 3 days ago, i did
an updateand what ever FF sent made it sick.
Several times in the last few days, I've found Firefox
(firefox-15.0.1-1.fc17.x86_64) sucking up 100% CPU. It wasn't completely frozen,
just extremely sluggish. I was able to close it in the usual way and restart to
temporarily fix it. The last time something like this happened to me was the
leap second bug.
Don't mean to be a ditto-head
but I have been having this problem with FF
for many years now, with many versions of it.
What I find happening is that if I open video
web sites that require adobe flash, then 3 processes
spawned by the browser and flash player remain
in core and sucking up to 90% of cpu, even though
the video stopped playing many minutes and even
hours ago, These processes are:
firefox
plugin-container
pulseaudio
So, next time your machine is brought to it's
knees by FF, kill FF and then kill the other 2 procs
because they will still be sucking tons of CPU.
I say this from direct experience,
