[Bug 38131] Re: Firefox causes massive Xorg CPU usage

The gnome-settings-daemon problem is not the main issue at stake here as
it doesn't fix the problem for me.

The main problem here is not one that only affects older computers. When
searching for something which returns a lot of results on launchpad
(like, ironically, "Xorg CPU") my firefox slows down to an unusable
state and Xorg uses 100% of one processor core. This is on a 3.86 GHz
core 2 quad with 4GiB of DDR2 942! If that system can't run a single tab
in firefox then there is a SERIOUS bug here!

There is a possibility that this is made worse by my peculiar X setup,
using two Nvidia GPUs with the proprietary driver with four monitors and
Xinerama.

(running up to date jaunty beta)
