Recently for the past couple of months I have been noticing that when I
start firefox my system fans go mad and CPU temp rises significantly by
at least 5Celcius. When I use Google plus the CPU usage reaches at least
40-60% and I assume _javascript_ is making the system go crazy. This
rarely happens in chrome though. I found this same behavior in other
distros as well. Debian unstable, Gentoo, arch. I thought if I switched
to some recent versions(stransky's copr packages) of Firefox 29 would help but to no avail. Did anyone else notice this kind of thing on their systems?
I think its specific to recent Intel core processors.
