I have experienced certain websites causing firefox to slow down 
considerably.  When I mouse over firefox the mouse begins to jerk as well 
but when I move back away from firefox it seems fine again.  I suspected 
it was an x/firefox bug.

Although I also sometimes observe mysql hanging for a period of a half 
second or so while running sysbench.  I wonder if we don't have a 
threading library bug?  I know I observed this prior to the thread_lock 
work so hopefully I didn't break it.
