My suspicion is that it is not html5.
I say this because, even though I was cruising youtube, I was not playing
anything. Furthermore, I used an addon to block all ads, so I had no
animated ads, nor any ads on the pages. So, I am puzzled about what is
eating the cpu bandwidth. I wish there were away for the user to view all
the JS directives that FF receives from the web sites so we can know
exactly what it is doing. We need to able to exercise total control over
what the browser is doing on behalf the websites we visit.
the wonders/whats/whys of programs are, i believe, in many minds is
"!WTF! is happening now?".
i will give some credit to the firefox dev's in that they did foresee
need to know 'wtf' and some of access is via "Tools" in 'main
menu' bar.
they did think to include, at one time, what is called "error console"
and "browser console".
"error console" is accessed by pressing
<alt+t>,<alt+w>,<alt+c>. along
top of "error console" window are buttons for:
[All] [Errors] [Warnings] [Messages] [Clear]
where the active button with be enclosed.
if not available for your version, which you did not mention, for
more info see;
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Special:Search?ns0=1&ns4=1&ns5=1&ns...
and
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Error_Console
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Web_Console
"browser console" is accessed by pressing
<alt+t>,<alt+w>,<alt+b>, or,
<ctrl+shift+j>. along top of "browser console" window are buttons for:
[Net] [CSS] [JS] [Security] [Logging] [Clear]
where the active will be clear, inactive is grayed. each of the buttons
has a color which relates to color used in the log table.
again, availability depends on version. for information, see;
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Browser_Console
to see if you have some add-on causing loading, in 'main menu' bar, try;
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled...
if loading drops, you have an add-on causing problem and you find which
one by restarting firefox with 1/2 add-ons enabled. if ok, enable 1/2 of
remaining, restart, then repeating '1/2 enable' each time until add-on
is found.
