Bug Description
I'm sure this must be a dup since I've seen this behavior for a couple years now, but searches aren't finding similar reports.
The problem is that when I visit Launchpad in Firefox on my MacBook 6,2 (4 CPUs @2.67GHz, 3.7 GB RAM, .07 typical load,) my CPU usage jumps to 100% when I try to scroll the pages. See attached screenshot. All the peaks in that image are me simply scrolling up and down on a not-so-big page. Here's a typical example of a page that causes 100% CPU utilization when I attempt to scroll up and down:

It was the same in FF 3.x with Ubuntu 10.04, 10.10, and now with FF 4.0 on Natty 11.04 A3

I'm not sure this is a Firefox-specific problem. I am sure that bugs.launchpad.net is the only page I've noticed that behaves this way.
