Hi,

I've upgraded from Firefox 3.5.16 to Firefox 5.0 on Linux i386 with 512 MB RAM. Everything is working fine until after "some time" (don't know the exact time period) the CPU load increases to 100%, my average system load explodes and the system is swapping memory wildly. This suddenly happens, even if Firefox is in the background while I'm working on different things. So it does not belong to any memory-hungry stuff like Flash pages or JavaScript sites. I don't think the problem is caused by my extensions (adblock, noscript, multifox, tabloc) or plugins (mplayer/Flash) either.

I think it is the Javascript Garbage Collector. I could tweak its cycle time in about:config, but this would just be work around the problem. Note that I usually have many open (app) tabs that extensively use Javascript and AJAX.

I really like the new Firefox features, but I haven't expected that "5.0" stands for 5.0 average system load. Sorry couldn't resist that remark ;D

I updated to Firefox Aurora this morning. Problems seem to be solved. Thank you!
