Evil JS?
I wondered whether anyone else was seeing what I'm seeing on this page:
http://www.energyhelpline.com
It's to do (I think) with the JavaScript news ticker thingy to the upper left. Viewing it in Firefox 3, the process sucks up all the CPU it can get, up to 90% or so and annoyingly prioritizing it over other apps. In Chrome, with its useful Task Manager, that shows this tab taking consistently around 20% of CPU when available; in Opera 9, it makes the Opera process as a whole take around 40%. In IE 7, though, it doesn't have any strange CPU effect.
Do any of you see this peculiar and unpleasant behaviour?
