Using SM2 on Windows 7 x64 (and other Windows machines).
I have found many discussions of high CPU usage in FireFox and
SeaMonkey, but none of the suggestions have ever helped in my situation.
The symptom is that SeaMonkey freezes for a few seconds, most noticeably
when scrolling a document or clicking a menu (when I expect instant
response). The problem is less severe on my new quad core machine
(Windows 7 x64) and worse on an XP virtual machine.
When this happens on my quad-core machine, Task Manager typically shows
high CPU on several cores (usually three), not just one one core as
happens when I load a new page.
How can I find out what SeaMonkey is doing when this happens?
David, to eliminate the possibility that it is the mail that is causing
this problem, could you go to Edit->Preferences->Mail & Newsgroups and
under General Settings , untick "Only check for mail....", Close the
Preferences window, then go Edit->Mail& Newsgroup Account Settings and
select Server Settings on your email account and in the Server Settings
section, untick "Check for new messages....", "Check for new
message....." and "Automatically download......" and close this screen, too.
Then do your normal browsing and then, at the end of your session, open
the mail portion of SM, get your mail and report back here.
