[Bug 562802] Re: xorg use cpu 100% sometime with firefox
I'm seeing similar behaviour. I'm currently running Ubuntu 11.04, Firefox 4.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.11.04.3 and nvidia-173 173.14.30-0ubuntu1 on on Dell D630 laptop (Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2,4 GHz with 4 GB RAM). Especially often this seems to happen with Facebook photos, if I click on a link on Facebook to see some photo the machine jams for a while and xorg CPU usage spikes up to 100 % in top. Sometimes there are no problems at all. I would say it's something like 4/10 times when it jams in either opening a photo or switching between the photos in Facebook. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/562802 Title: xorg use cpu 100% sometime with firefox To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/562802/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 562802] Re: xorg use cpu 100% sometime with firefox
Since this problem affects me, too, I did some test. Maybe the results can help to track down the problem. I am running Ubuntu Lucid Lynx (32 Bit) on an AMD 64x2 4800 CPU with an NVidia 8800 GTS GPU on a 1920x1080 display. I am currently using the 195.xxx drivers from the repos but I also tested with vesa, nouveau and even the new nvidia-256.xxx -- only to realize that the selected driver doesn't seem to have an effect on this specific bug. The problem is that Firefox makes Xorg use 100% CPU when initially displaying or when scrolling certain pages. On some pages this leads to heavy delays and scrolling turns out to be very jumpy. The effect is most noticable when grabbing the vertical scrollbar and quickly dragging it up and down. It's not clear what exactly triggers the problem. There are long pages that scroll smoothly and short pages that stutter (even this one). But I found one page that reliably stutters on my configuration so I used that one for my following tests: http://blog.thesilentnumber.me/2010/04/ubuntu-1004-post-install-guide- what-to.html Before Lucid, I was using Interpid which came with Firefox 3.0.x (IIRC) where I didn't have the problem. So I downloaded Firefox 3.0.19 from mozilla.org and gave it a try on Lucid. When fully loaded, the above page flies with Firefox 3.0.19. Though it's quite long and contains many images, scrolling is fast and smooth. Next, I tried with Firefox 3.5.19. Here the problem began: Scrolling stutters on the above page and makes Xorg take 100% CPU. For fun, I also tried the current snapshot of Firefox 3.7 aka Minefield and amazingly: The problem has gone again! Minefield does not fly as fast as 3.0.19 but it did not stutter as 3.5.19 and 3.6.3 did. BTW: I had no console outputs while running my tests. -- xorg use cpu 100% sometime with firefox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/562802 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for all of the responses everyone. If this is still happening for anyone, can you please let us know if any other applications other than Firefox cause the xorg process to use 100% of the CPU?

I am also experiencing this. xorg cpu usage spikes up past 60% usage when scrolling a page. It actually happens if I scroll up and down this page. Fans kick on and everything. Running the restricted nvidia driver 195.36.15. Also, scrolling in Google Chrome, xorg cpu spikes up to 40%, which seems a little high.

[Bug 562802] Re: xorg use cpu 100% sometime with firefox
I can confirm that this happens to me running a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 (64-bit). I'm using the 195 .xxx Nvidia drivers that were installed with jockey. When running top, I can see that the %CPU of Xorg process shoots up when scrolling through certain pages. This happens with Compiz on or off and appears independent of visual effects setting levels. One thing I've noticed is that his consistently happens with text-rich pages, such as this very launchpad bug report page, but it doesn't happen for pages that have a lot of images. I can open up two tabs in Firefox, one for this page, and another with mainly images, and I'll notice that Xorg CPU use shoots up MUCH higher only when this text-rich is being displayed. It seems the problem is related to text rendering/redrawing. I don't see any errors in the Xorg log, but I'd be happy to post more information or whatever log reports needed. -- xorg use cpu 100% sometime with firefox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/562802 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
