Actually, Firefox freezes too. It wouldn't be better simply disable HUD when using Firefox or, at least, don't scan Firefox bookmarks menu? It's actually redundant, since the address bar already does that. HUD is only usefull to access the other options (File, Edit, Help, etc).
If it helps, my bookmark menu structure it's a few hundreds of bookmarks, with subdirectories too. Em 30-05-2012 19:12, Chris Coulson escreveu: > I'm not sure we can really make this much faster now.

It looks like its trying to index Firefox menus (speacially the bookmarks menu, that has a lot of entries). Steps to reproduce: - You need a Firefox install with hundreds of bookmarks. - Start Firefox - Start the Hud and try to search a item that it's on your bookmarks menu. - See the high CPU usage of unity-pane-service and hud-service.
