CPU Load > 60%

Hi,

I'm having a CPU load of over 60% (with a P4 3.06HT) when loading this page in FX 3.0 beta5 /IE7 /Opera 9.2 :

»wetter.rtl.de/deutschland/uebers···r=0A48A5

What I'm wondering is if it's just me or do you guys get the same strain on resources with your PC?

PS: I have flash V9.0 r124 installed.

Hi Lanik,

I suppose WFM means "works for me". It's working for me too, but I have that abnormal CPU spike, which I think is due to Flash.

I have now installed the same Minefield build as you have but the result is the same.

How much CPU usage do you have on that page?

Greetings,

UP

I noticed a CPU spike on that site also using Fx v3pre (Minefield).

I know there is abug filed at Bugzilla for flash causing hign memory usage but do not have the address to it so you will have to look for it.

That's exactly what it means.

I see less then 10% lots of Flash bugs were fixed after the release of b5.

GK&Lanik,

thanks for your replies. The CPU load seems unrelated to Firefox on my machine. I'm getting the 60% load with IE & Opera, too.

My system is: Win XP Pro SP3, 1,5 GB RAM, P4 3,06GHz HT CPU.

Should be enough to handle some flash, or?

No strain here. But then I am using "noscript" and "flashblock", so those flash applets don't run unless I manually enable them.

Running a bunch of concurrent flash applets can eat cpu cycles. I recommend flashblock.

It went upto 30% max for me, and when sitting idle without moving mouse it stays around 15-20 or so over both cores. Nothing seems unusual considering there is flash on the site.

The new V10 flash seems to be much better performance wise:

That will probably fix my problem (hopefully)
