i can confirm this bug on kubuntu 8.04.
some websites causes firefox (either 2.0 or 3 beta) and xorg to use massive
amount of CPU.
(firefox CPU usage may go beyond 90% on these sites, and my box is Pentium D
3.2Ghz with 2 GB RAM).
examples for these sites:
www.ynet.co.il
These sites have a lot of JavaScript inside. Try to install NoScript (
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/722 ) and measure the CPU
usage again. Both sites works well for me with and without JavaScript
execution allowed.
I had this bug previosly but not now. Update your system.
once i installed NoScript the CPU usage remained low on the above sites
i mentioned, which means the bug is caused by these java scripts.
my graphics card is geforce 6600 LE.
i have installed the nvidia-glx-new drivers (also tried with nvidia-glx).
i have compiz-fusion running and it goes smooth
OK!
So if what eats a lot of CPU is Xorg, your bug could still being on
Xorg, I think.
But instead, if what eats a lot of CPU is Firefox, the bug would be on
Firefox and would be not related to Xorg.
Well, actually I have no idea of what your problem is, but I think the
effect of installing
Firefox 3 often uses 100% CPU when starting up on a blank page. So I don't
think this has anything to do with JavaScript or particular websites.

everyone is confirming the problem..but i need the solution guys..
i cant bear see my firefox lock down everytime i get on hi5!!!

all are sleeping like..none use mush memory is shown there..well
i never got this
I have same kind of problem with Opera and Konqueror. Firefox also, but
it makes Xorg return back to normal CPU usage much faster. For example
Fluxubuntu page (www.fluxubuntu.org) makes my Xorg use CPU 100%. It
doesn't matter which browser I use (at least if it is Opera, Konqueror
or Firefox). I
Just to add - the CPU usage is reduced to normal if firefox is
minimised, or you click the stop button. Xorg is probably just crapping
itself trying to render those stupid little animated rotating icons on
the tab title bars.

Firefox causes massive Xorg CPU usage
Xorg does not just hog CPU while firefox is rendering a page (this would
be understandable), but even when firefox is quietly waiting for data,
for example if the wireless connection has dropped out, firefox is
sitting using about 5% CPU waiting for data, but Xorg is eating 40% -
why?
At least
I have the same problem. (with Sidux (Debian Sid Distro), my graphics
card is an Intel X3100 (Intel GM965) using xserver-xorg-intel and mesa)
Xorg cpu usage skyrockets while firefox is rendering a page, or while entering
text in the addressbar for example.
Maybe this is a gtk problem not a
Turns out this was/is a problem with a new version of xserver-xorg-video-intel.
The problem disappears when using vesa driver or downgrading to an older
version of xserver-xorg-video-intel.
For anyone interested: I have an Intel X3100 (GM965) and
xserver-xorg-video-intel Version 2:2.2.0-1 does
