I notice Firefox is sometimes taking CPU when I am not using it. I would like to find out what Firefox is doing at these times. Logging the calls being made by running threads would be useful. Currently I am testing if XUL Profiler can track threads running outside of the page. --JoeyTwiddle | I notice Firefox is sometimes taking CPU when I am not using it. I would like to find out what Firefox is doing at these times. Logging the calls being made by running threads would be useful. Currently I am testing if XUL Profiler can track threads running outside of the page. Well it was certainly able to show me some inefficiencies in javascript. But I don't think it's tracking everything which Firefox is doing, because sometimes there is high CPU usage, but nothing significant logged by XUL Profiler. I think to trace everything, I must rebuild Firefox. --JoeyTwiddle | ||
