Description:
There is a bug in libwebkit that causes Epiphany, and most probably other libwebkit based browsers, to stress the entire system with 100% cpu usage while visiting certain web sites. https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42052 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=602421 Patch is not yet included in nightly builds. Additional info: * package version(s) 1.2.4-2 * config and/or log files etc. Steps to reproduce: Visit http://www.ubuntu-rs.org/ with Epiphany 2.30.6-2 or many other sites with custom fonts or japanese/chinese encoding. |
This task depends upon
https://bug-42052-attachments.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=68992
So I'll guess we will have to wait untill webkitgtk dev version becomes stable, or someone else backport this stuff in future 1.2.x versions.
