From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.17 i686; en-US; m18) Gecko/20001209 BuildID: cvs-12/10/00 When I visit this page and those under it, mozilla starts taking up 90-95% of the CPU and grows to something like 100Mb of memory. This brings system performance to a crawl. I have no idea what the problem is but I did notice that as the memory usage grows the debugging output seems to have many WEBSHELL += in it. Instead of the normal <10 webshells, I have something like 240 webshells. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Visit this web page and watch both the debugging output and mozilla's memory usage. Actual Results: Page loads like most other pages but mozilla and then the overall system become more and more sluggish until mozilla is totally unusable and I have to kill it to get control of my system back. Expected Results: The page loads and doesn't kill my system. Tried it with JS enabled and disabled.
