Pango is enabled by default in Firefox 1.5. export MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 and try again. Wow. Thanks a lot, I missed that post in the forums. It seems to make a difference. Why does Pango support cripple the thing? m. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] firefox 1.5 CPU usage - is it normal?
Do you have smooth scrolling turned on? When I had that on it just tore through whatever remaining CPU I had left like oil refinery on fire because it was re-rendering everything so darn often. On my machine, that was such excrutiating torture... Nice suggestion. With smooth scrolling turned off, things are a bit smoother (oh, the irony...) - I didn't know about this "feature". I'm also removing extensions to see where's the culprit. m. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Update. I tried with firefox -safe-mode and things are somehow better (but still not as good as with FF 1.0.x). m. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] firefox 1.5 CPU usage - is it normal?
Hi, I updated today to FF 1.5.0.4 x86 stable. I noticed that it seems to eat MUCH more cpu than 1.0.x ; in particular when scrolling pages or the bookmarks the cpu usage rockets to >90%, and scrolling becomes not fluid. It also tends to get stuck when loading pages and the like. Is it normal behaviour? I looked in the forums but I found nothing. Thanks, m. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
