Under Linux you cannot scroll the aforementioned URL - scrolling is
extremely jerky while Firefox consumes 100% of CPU.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Visit the given URL.
Actual Results:  
Terribly slow and jerky scrolling.

Expected Results:  
Smooth scrolling.

This problem exists both in Firefox 3.6.13 and 4.0beta10 with clean
(new) profiles.

Opera 11 and Google Chrome 8 don't exhibit this problem.

This is the comment about that bug by AaronP, a Nvidia Linux Driver developer, 
maybe it helps: 
" I took a look today, and it appears that Firefox is using an enormous pixmap 
that exceeds the GPU's maximum rendering dimensions, causing software 
fallbacks. While we will attempt to make it as fast as possible, performance 
would be greatly improved if Firefox would render using surfaces that fit 
within the maximum renderable dimensions."

I was unable to reproduce issue with an integrated Intel card. Can
someone having a Nvidia card confirm issue?

I can confirm this on nvidia.
I am running archlinux, firefox 3.6.13, xorg 1.9.3.901 and nvidia 260.19.36 (on 
both GTX460 and GT240).
I have seen this for a long time but when i tested it now again i noticed that 
if i set a non-default zoom level the page is quick, perhaps this can be a hint 
to someone fixing this annoying performance problem.

I can confirm this bug, with my 8600m GT Nvidia proprietary driver

me it is much more obvious on this URL: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-

I can also confirm that changing the zoom level to a non default one
makes it much better or even go away completely.

I can confirm this problem as well, on a NVIDIA 8800GT using the 260 and
270 drivers at least, but it has existed prior to them as well, as far
as I know.

However the nouveau driver seems to handle the page just fine. Could it
not be a driver problem after all?

Thank you for being so fast in verifying this issue.

Can you please test problem having the latest nvidia official drivers
installed, just to make sure it's not driver related.

nouveau driver doesn't have this problem according to people commented

Yes, I'm now running NVIDIA drivers 270.26. Like NVIDIA developers said
the problem is that:

"... it appears that Firefox is using an enormous pixmap
that exceeds the GPU's maximum rendering dimensions, causing software
fallbacks."

and since they haven't yet solved it, the issue is still in effect.
However it's worth mentioning that neither Opera, nor Google Chrome has
this bug.

BTW, scrolling is *not* necessary - Firefox takes up to 2 seconds just
to switch to *any* page on bugs.launchpad.net, like this one:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+bug/734615 -
this web page is now only three-four screens long.

Xorg cpu usage goes through the roof, even when not scrolling

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101

build from mozilla.org.

Not limited to just launchpad, the "My eBay" page for me exhibits the
same, to the point of being unusable
