rescuetime.com slows down firefox
I was wondering FF3 using ca. 40-50% of CPU (that means a whole core!) the whole time in the last days. I searched for the origin of this phenomenon and now I found it:
As long as I have rescuetime.com in one of my tabs (doesn't matter if this tab is active or even if I use FF3 at the moment or having it run in the background) the CPU usage is that high! As soon as I close the tab the usage by FF3 rapidly goes down to 5-10% when using it and ca. 2% when using another program and having FF3 running in the background.
So how can it be, that only having rescuetime in a tab causes such a high CPU usage? I mean I don't even use it. I can have google opened in 50 tabs and it does not use any CPU usage. Why does rescuetime.com?

I’m frustrated

I have this problem, too!
Tell me when someone solves it.

Inappropriate?Unfortunately this is a known issue with Firefox, there is a Critical bug open which you can read about here:

Inappropriate?So we have to wait? In the last post over there someone suggest what you can do against that, or am I wrong?
It also seems to be some days in the past, so the new FF 3.1 did nothing against that?
