I used to get that when the system was dealing with a lot of open tabs in firefox. It seems that tabs in firefox continue refreshing even when they are not visible. And so X had to deal with all the message passing and memory munging this required. I think it was a form of thrashing, as competing tasks were swapped in and out of execution. I haven't seen it for a while. So maybe firefox doesn't do that anymore, or the version of X deals better. Or the kernel. I'm running a custom compiled 4.3 kernel, maybe that's the difference. That it is only occurring on your system, suggests it is something about your use case or hardware that is the culprit, in concert with the OS. That is, you've hit a corner case. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
