This is an old problem. The Mozilla Bugtracker show entrys from the end of 2007 for Firefox. -> https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=407325 And in the between times this problem should be no real problem anymore. Here on version 3.1.6 Squeeze/amd64 the wakeups significant lower. 2,2% ( 11,7) icedove-bin : hrtimer_start_range_ns (hrtimer_wakeup) Is the power consumption still heavy? If so can you post your actual tests on the posted BugtrackerID in Mozilla, because this is a upstream related problem? Thanks!
