Description of problem: After opening a great number of pages (e.g. google mail, nytimes.com, www.bbc.co.uk, www.linux.com), Firefox is irresponsive, though the CPU usage is low. Seems only to happen if any of the Plugins (not Extensions!) is enabled. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): firefox.i686 0:7.0.1-1.fc16 Additional info: The same is happening in FF 6.0, but not in FF 5.0 (both downloaded from koji).
The posible solution is to disable all the plugins. It worked for me.
That's not the solution but running away of the problem. Reporter, do you see in top (run in gnome-terminal) some particular process behaving badly when this happens? Thank you for helping to make Fedora awesome!
Every process run normal, even Firefox was below 10% of CPU load. Now, with some package updates, even with all the plugins enabled Firefox runs as it should. Let's wait a bit more, though, before closing this bug report, some of the packages I updated were downloaded from kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org, i.e. they were not in the ordinary update channel.
Putting here the needinfo on this bug and let us know, if something happens. Thank you
Please reopen if you have more info.
