Possible fix for Fx stops loading pages + high CPU

[LoudNoise]

It doesn't happen to me so I couldn't do it. If someone who is suffering from this wants help with a bug report we could certainly do that.

Should someone be interested make a new, clean profile and don't add anything to it. If the problem still exists we can work from there.

I will try this fix, as I have the same problem with 7.0 and 7.0.1.

But WHY should we have to do this? Why do most people who upgrade NOT have to do this? I don't understand.

Nor do I. My first guess was an extension interaction but that has been more or less ruled out.

Just to be perverse, I found mine was set to 48. I've increased to 96 and loading has improved out of sight!

Hi-
I just updated and the fix is not working for me. The CPU surge appears to be worst on my YAHOO home page. Constantly between 60-70%. Any more advice? As is FF is pretty much unusable for me.

Also,
network.http.max-connections-oer-server is set @ 15. Not sure if that matters or not.

ty for your help.

These steps did not work for me. I already had mine set at 256.

Everybody has theirs set to 256. You are supposed to reduce it to 48.

Thanks!!!!!!
I thought this new 64-bit machine was going to be the end of Firefox for me

Filed bug 692262.

Vanilla-
Just to be sure. Are U saying try 30 instead of 48?

[LoudNoise]

48 works for most people. If someone wants to try higher numbers feel free.

Also, edited the first post to ask if folks have a fast or slow connection.

WrenP-

Since you have a different problem I split your post off to here:

No. And I don't know anything about this bug except what I've read here.

It used to be set at 30 before. I have since changed mine back to 30 even though I did not really have issues with 256 on my now pretty old Linux box.

For reading as Bugzilla is not a discussion forum. Bug 692260 - Increase in network.http.max-connections appears to cause hang, requires browser restart

From reading that james it looks like the problem may be an errant dll.

See also Bug 681198 - Speedbit Video Accelerator conflicts with > 32 concurrent connections (unconfirmed).

The relevant file is sblsp.dll . If you have that and you are experiencing the problem, let us know.

It's funny, my bug 692262 is a duplicate of 692260.
