I concur. What I would also expect to see is Firefox maxing out both cores for approx 2-5 seconds as it unloads firefox-bin and plugin- container - this CPU peak does NOT happen if the user has been viewing Flash 11 content off Youtube... from their standard player. If I use iPlayer or 4OD - it seems to close down cleanly. There are also other times when the cleardown happens neatly.
It's made more complex in that Youtube seem to use a number of playout clients. Re the unload cycle - it's almost like the UI is the only thing that unloads when the problem is experienced. You may have received the issue earlier - IF the problem didn't stand in the way of ubuntu-bug being able to submit the content. However, if Firefox cannot reopen and open the new tab - that incident is never logged. To submit mine, I had to kill Firefox-bin, then go and look at ubuntu-bug's doccos on how to log the data to the local filesystem, then once back in Firefox, get it to replay the incodent and push the data. -- 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/875538 Title: [Firefox 3.6.23] Impossible to open firefox because firefox-bin process is still running Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “firefox” source package in Lucid: Triaged Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” source package in Lucid: Triaged Status in “firefox” source package in Maverick: Triaged Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” source package in Maverick: Triaged Bug description: After upgrading firefox to version 3.6.23 few days ago, firefox does not work properly. At firt use after computer starting, firefox works well. It is possible to close firefox without any issue. But at second starting, firefox indicates it is impossible to launch firefox because firefox-bin process is still running. The workaround is to restart the computer, or simply kill the firefox-bin process. This behaviour happened right after upgrading firefox to version 3.6.23, and is systematic with the profil user I use (it's an admin user). I tested with another profil (non admin) on the computer: The problem has not been reproduced.
