Description Andrew Meredith 2009-07-25 19:15:28 UTC 
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.9.1.1) Gecko/20090717 Fedora/3.5.1-1.fc11 Firefox/3.5.1

Having just undated the laptop to Fedora 11 and yum updated, I am now finding that Thunderbird freezes every couple of minutes or so for a couple of minutes or so. Top shows that while thunderbird is in a freeze it takes all of the available CPU. The machine is not running into swap so it is not a memory issue. Previous versions of thunderbird did occasionally do this, but the frequency was in days, not minutes.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update Thunderbird
2. Execute Thunderbird
3. Wait for a minute or two
Actual Results:  
Periodic freezes

Expected Results:  
No periodic freezes

Seems like bug #493000 (there are some other reports too).

Yes, most likely.

Yup ... Happy with that.

I did do a search before submitting it, but didn't spot that one.
