Agreed. I have seen FF3 scorch the CPU when no flash is running.

Then again, one of the issues with tabbed browsing is that if we are not careful, we can have 20 or more tabs running before you know it, each running something "hot".....

Frankly speaking, after running Opera for a week or so, I have scorched the CPU on my laptop on at least one occasion. So, I am not 100% sure if the problem is isolated to FF3, as I am starting to see a similar condition on Opera Smilie

(on both Windows XP and Mac OS X)

lvm_queryvg call does not work properly and results in a sudden memory rise.

On AIX 5.3 host, the lvm_queryvg call does not work properly and results in a sudden memory rise. This is happening on one particular host and the call works fine on another host. Is this a known issue and is there any patch available for this?

Opera 9.5 for Sparc

Has anyone gotten Opera 9.5 to work? I'm using Solaris Sparc 5.10. The browser is unusable. It crashes even when viewing Opera's Desktop Team blog. I've asked Opera about this, but no reply. I've never been able to get the 9.5 betas to work either. From one Opera user's blog, I don't see any...

::Application::Plugin::DBIProfile::Graph::GDGraphInliUserpContributed Perl DocumCGI::Application::Plugin::DBIProfile::Graph::GDGraphInline(3pm)

NAME

       CGI::Application::Plugin::DBIProfile::Graph::GDGraphInline - Inlined GD Graph output for CAP:DBIProfile.

SYNOPSIS

	   # in httpd.conf
	   SetVar CAP_DBIPROFILE_GRAPHMODULE CGI::Application::Plugin::DBIProfile::Graph::GDGraphInline
	   PerlSetVar CAP_DBIPROFILE_GRAPHMODULE CGI::Application::Plugin::DBIProfile::Graph::GDGraphInline

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a GD::Graph::bars inlined graphing option for CAP:DBIProfile. Please note, inlined images are NOT supported by MSIE as
       of version 7. Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, Safari, and Konqueror are supported.

       The following settings control the output:

       $CGI::Application::Plugin::DBIProfile::Graph::GDGraphInline::FORMAT
	   Output format. Defaults to "png". One of "png", "gif", or "jpeg".  Any GD supported output format can be easily added.

       $CGI::Application::Plugin::DBIProfile::Graph::GDGraphInline::WIDTH
	   Width of output image. If you have problems with browser support for large inline images, reduce this.

       $CGI::Application::Plugin::DBIProfile::Graph::GDGraphInline::HEIGHT
	   Height of output image. If you have problems with browser support for large inline images, reduce this.

BUGS

       Microsoft Internet Explorer, as of versions 6 and 7, lacks support for the "data: URI scheme", and thus lacks support for inline images.

       Inline images max size is limited to the browsers max URI length. For example, on Opera, this used to be 4kb. If you hit this limit, you
       can change the size of the output to try to compensate.

REQUIREMENTS

       GD::Graph
       MIME::Base64
