Hi, all!
While running Iceweasel, my machine (3.00Ghz, 1.0 Mb IBM S50, Debian Lenny)
suddenly became very sluggish. I ran top and found that firefox.bin was
reported as consuming 135% of processor capacity! I killed the process and
everything returned to normal.
Now, I'm used to certain public figures claiming to be '110% certain' about
various things, but 135% CPU? Can anyone explain?
