Public bug reported: I'm using oneiric, and
When recieving a message in pidgin the cpu load goes to 100%. Nealry on every message i receive.... (so i know when someone PM me, as the fan starts whining....) After focusing the pidgin window the load drops again. Found a bug in ubuntu (sorry, lost the url) that mentiond a bug in the scroll bar drawing.
