Title:
  Firefox makes X hang when viewing big images

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I've experienced some times now that when I load big images in
  Firefox, the X server hangs. This occurs with a default Firefox
  profile, and for example reproducible on
  http://sortvis.org/algorithms/bubblesort.html (needs JavaScript). In
  this case, Xorg goes up to 100% CPU, and I does not react to key
  presses (except when using the SysRq shortcuts to kill it). I have a
  backtrace (see gdb-Xorg-direct.txt), with Xorg started from gdb as
  root, and then browsing Firefox to the mentioned URL. From the
  backtrace, it seems to be related with libpixman; however, when I
  install libpixman-1-0-dbg to get a reasonable backtrace, the X hangs
  do not occur anymore...

  I am currently using Ubuntu Lucid LTS, with Firefox 3.6.18+build2
  +nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.2 from lucid-updates.
