Firefox using over 90 % of CPU ??

[JayhawksRock]

I'm using WinXP 2 gig of ram and as I type this Task Manager is showing with 12 tabs open and 21 extensions the running Program is using 182mb RAM and CPU use bouncing between 0 and 7 pct ... 32 total system processes running

So, is this problem resolved? ... I can't really tell from the OP's posts.

If there ever was a problem, I'd say yes This is a Dead Parrot

I guess the "problem" ( if it really were a problem) is resolved,
looks like it's an XP problem, and it doesn't matter what browser your using.

With all the BS turned off, it's not a problem.

OK... I was just wondering if you were in Firefox (safe-mode) and you were getting fast responses with it.

Just curious... defragged lately, cleaned out Recycle?, added memory?, checked your disk capacity? ...

well you posted here about high CPU usage so it must have been a problem..you say its resolved...how did you resolve it?

As this is a Firefox forum, and the problem seems to be an XP problem,
i guess it's not a problem for this forum.
This is a 2.4 gig P-4 with 2 gig of ram, HD at about 85% ,
maybe it's time to move some stuff to my network drive.
Recycle cleaned about a week ago, could maybe use a defrag,
I'll do that after I off load 10 gig or so off the HD.

Thanks

In my old XP, 1gig of mem... and a 40gig drive... I never experienced what you're getting... so, your system should be strong enough as it stands... defraggs can make a world of diff... but, you 85% number is high... I would suspect that you should see a lot of disk i/o for simple procedures... and, that can cause a bunch of slowdowns etc.
