Summary	0001742: Firefox/Iceweasel high CPU usage when idle
Description	Many people using different Unix distributions, running Iceweasel is aware of the CPU consumption. After peeking around Google, I've found this article with an FIX: http://bernatarlandis.wordpress.com/2014/02/28/firefoxiceweasel-high-cpu-usage-when-idle/ And for more reading, the early report wrote this: http://syn.theti.ca/2014/02/28/invisible-css-animations-on-iceweasel-consuming-cpu/ I tested this on Kali v1.0.9 x64, and CPU performance is increased. Performance data will be added tonight!
Additional Information	None additional information added, but performance data and images will be uploaded tonight (10/25/2014)
