Description

We had a Bamboo dashboard page open in Firefox in the background. The computer got slower and slower until we noticed that Firefox was taking most of the CPU and consuming 450MB.

Closing Firefox there was a message saying that a script was unresponsive, did we want to cancel it. We did.

Haven't tried to reproduce

Is FireBug installed in your FF? Cuz that stores all the Ajax responses that gets sent to it.

I had the same problem - cameback in the morning and firefox had died (taking my machine with it). I do have firebug, but I can leave teamcity open for days without it causing any problems, so it's probably not be just firebug!
