Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox
Just went from Dapper to Edgy on a Lenovo T60 with hyperthreading
enabled. I run BOINC on both CPUs in the background. All was working
well in Dapper.
Now, I notice that Firefox (and only Firefox) is *very* sluggish when
BOINC is using both CPUs (with the 2.6.27-10-generic kernel). Firefox
seems to work fine when I suspend computation in BOINC.
Tried to see if hyperthreading was the problem by booting to
2.6.17-10-386 kernel. No change, but Firefox crashed during
experimentation.
I'll attach the crash report momentarily....
** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu)
