           Summary: High CPU usage when enabling Chat in iGoogle
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Qt
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: pano_90 at gmx.net


iGoogle seems to be causing the CPU usage to shoot up to around 50%, slowing
down the system.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create an iGoogle page (http://www.google.com/ig)
2. On the left hand side of the website you can enable the chat feature (you might need to log in to Google, in order to be able to load it)

Adding chat to iGoogle causes the high CPU usage; removing it reduces CPU usage.

Tested here with Qt 4.6.2 in arora and rekonq, both show the same behaviour.
