How did you install Jessie? Is icedove rebuilding the search database? That would slow things down until rebuilt. icedove: prefs -> advanced -> Advanced Configuration, Enable Global Search and Indexer A normal upgrade from wheezy won't need to rebuild that database. This jessie laptop is a 2 Gb Acer, core 2 duo, Intel 965GM graphics chipset. With chromium, icedove and iceweasel open as I type, cpu usage is 2%. No ideas about your chrome. Good luck!
