@radiobuzzer "Lately the unity menu integration does not come as an addon. So, the previous solution (to disable the globalmenu addon if ones has high CPU load) does not work."
The addon, "Unity Desktop Integration", is still present in Ubuntu 13.04, and probably will continue to be in some form for the foreseeable future. Without a Firefox addon Unity has no means of using a simple API to access the bookmarks, so it is highly unlikely the addon will be replaced with some non-addon based interface. Perhaps you manually removed the addon via the package manager? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

It can take 3-8 seconds to change *tab*. During this time the CPU is maxed out; typical output from 'top' during this period shows 'hud- service' and 'unity-panel-service' combined using about the same CPU as Firefox itself: 100 10.4 26:07.73 firefox 53 0.6 6:14.86 hud-service 38 1.5 6:42.14 unity-panel-service I suspect that the change is causing a (an inefficient) re-index related to updated menu structures. (Eg. something like the history menu, although I can't see what it is as don't currently have a menu bar).
