I really wonder why even after 11+ years this is still not fixed and reporters like me have been bugged multiple times with needless Needinfo requests?!?
As I wrote several times over several years at several places in this bug tracker: The problem is easily reproducible with any TB version (meanwhile including 78.4.2.). Again: just enter an IP address such as 1.2.3.4 as the server name/address. Then try fetching emails. Until this timeouts, the progress bar moves forth and back with significant CPU load (10% of one core on my current Linux machine). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/109943 Title: Thunderbird: high CPU usage from progress bars Status in Mozilla Thunderbird: Confirmed Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird When sending a simple and short email with Thunderbird via SMTP the CPU is used intensively. This seems not to be necessary. If the sending failed and an corresponding error message dialog appears, the CPU is still being used. When pressing ok to close the error dialog the CPU is fine. This suggests it might be related specifically to the progress bar. Such behavior is especially annoying on a laptop where you can hear the CPU usage because of a starting fan.
