OpenSolaris build 118, stock firefox: I have a single tab in firefox
with a static web page.  Firefox is using up 5% of my CPU somehow.  Over
time, the CPU usage creeps up util the system is mostly unusable and I
need to restart firefox, and the cycle starts over.  It looks like it's
in a tight loop where the main thread is issuing FIONREAD, but I haven't
spent much time trying to figure out what it's actually doing.

It also looks like Xorg is similarly using up CPU cycles, presumably as
a side-effect of whatever firefox is trying to do, but I don't know for
sure.

Has anyone observed anything similar?  Is this a known problem?
