I have over a thousand bookmarks, though I am not sure exactly how many. I too am experiencing this problem and it is lowering productivity significantly since the slowdown is rather frequent and makes the browser temporarily inaccessible.
Is there a dev out there who can point me to where the code is that needs to be changed, perhaps with a hint or two on what to do? I am more than willing to fix the bug myself, but I am not familiar enough with the Unity code base to do so unaided in a reasonable amount of time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1005174 Title: HUD Service high CPU usage with Firefox Status in The Application Menu: Confirmed Status in Unity: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “indicator-appmenu” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When using HUD to access Firefox menus, it will use a high amount of CPU (around 70%), even after Firefox is closed. It looks like its trying to index Firefox menus (speacially the bookmarks menu, that has a lot of entries). Steps to reproduce: - You need a Firefox install with hundreds of bookmarks. - Start Firefox - Start the Hud and try to search a item that it's on your bookmarks menu. - See the high CPU usage of unity-pane-service and hud-service.
