As the hang in the latter (frame rendering) case looks exactly like the Tab freeze I assume it is the same bug.
#Mozilla firefox not responding every few seconds windows
Note: it usually happens when a new tab gets opened, but I have been able to reproduce the problem on new windows (right click, open link in new window) and have been able to see it happen after part of a multi-frame page got loaded and a further frame needed to be rendered. The status on the bottom says: "Transferring data from. Original poster (mseele) laid out the users view of the bug very well.īug Description: Open new site in a Tab: Firefox freezes for 3-10+ seconds _exactly_ after the tab/window gets opened, the title name and grey background have been painted and the throbber starts rotating, but just before the first rendering is performed. > I suggest the early comments be ignored and start fresh. Still, Linux users might want to check it. A developer is probably not going to touch this unless the problem can be reduced.īug 248345 suffers similar issues. Complexity and complex example sites also make finding the cause more difficult. If nothing else, assuming this is a linux only bug, then examples that fail in windows and other OS don't help this bug - and should be taken elsewhere. Perhaps it is wise to close the bug and address individual issues (causes) in new bugs focused on specific issues or in one of the many existing bugs does it happen if just clicked (rather than middle clicked) It has been suggested that this bug be closed WFM becauseĪ) Alexsey the confirmer states his/her problem was 'history' (so it should not have been confirmed at that time)ī) the bug is digressing into problems with other links and issues (some of which are not limited to unix)Ĭ) several unanswered questions related to mseele's report using the initial URL: Also, see Bug 277547 if your cpu has hyperthreading or multiple cpu.

So it is most likly a timeout problem in Gecko or code close to Gecko.

DNS waits and network congestion aggrevate it, but do not cause it. Start firefox again: complete hang of about 10 seconds.Ĭomplex sites highlists the problem.

Tab/window opens, background gets painted single color, hang happens just before initial rendering starts. > works fine in my linux (slamd64, 32bits mozilla binary, 1.5) PS: I think Bug #248345 is a dupe of this bug, 277547 may be as well but perhaps Sugested resolution: add a new thread for each tab/window. New Thread for that window/tab and even if the "new" tab hangs he should stillīe able to use his present tab or access the menu commands. The user expects is that on opening a new window/tab is that Firefox starts a My personal analysis: That Gecko hangs is not the real problem however. When rendering has started and sub-sections of the page need to be rendered. It is not version dependant (can be reproduced with Mozilla 1.7x, Firefoxġ.0-1.0.3, etc., seems to happen in Thunderbird as well not sure)Īssumption: It seems to be that Gecko "hangs" a bit on pondering the layoutĬomplex pages (e.g. It is not a local proxy problem (problem remains with and without squid and/or It is not the history file (cleared that, restarted, problem remains).
