Package: iceweasel
Version: 4.0-3
Severity: normal
CPU usage by Xorg process is very high while page is loading (constantly about
50-80%) if option "Tabs on Top" is off (by default it is on). You can change
this option in context menu of any panel. Disabling tab loading animation by
editing userChrome.css solves problem completely. It is reproducable on clean
profile of iceweasel. I've downloaded Firefox directly from Mozilla and bug is
not reproducable on it.
I'm using GNOME Desktop Environment (only part of it actually), Nvidia
proprietary drivers from debian package (version 270.30), and I have no
compositing enabled.

Version: 115.12.0esr-1+rm
src:iceweasel has been superseded by src:firefox-esr in version
45.0esr-1 in March 2016. Transitional packages to ease upgrades were
provided in the wheezy, jessie, stretch and buster releases. The
transitional packages have been removed finally before the bullseye
release in August 2021.
After regular security support for buster ended in August 2022 and LTS
support ended in June 2024, I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.
