xul:progressmeter was converted to html:progress. But looks like it's still reproducible at least on linux. In scratchpad or console, do
document.getElementById("tabmail- container").appendChild(document.createElementNS("http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml", "progress")); ... and check CPU usage. For me it goes to around 20% and stays there. Can also reproduce on Firefox nightly. There in the Developer Tools | Console document.getElementById("urlbar").appendChild(document.createElementNS("http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml", "progress")); The only difference is that there it jumps from listing Firefox to "GPU process" and back. It's still Firefox causing it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/109943 Title: Thunderbird: high CPU usage from progress bars Status in Mozilla Thunderbird: Confirmed Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird When sending a simple and short email with Thunderbird via SMTP the CPU is used intensively. This seems not to be necessary. If the sending failed and an corresponding error message dialog appears, the CPU is still being used. When pressing ok to close the error dialog the CPU is fine. This suggests it might be related specifically to the progress bar. Such behavior is especially annoying on a laptop where you can hear the CPU usage because of a starting fan.
