Hi, digg is a popular site using AJAX to allow comment folding, and other usability features. Viewing digg articles, especially opening a few at once in new tabs locks up safari (Spinning Wheel of Death) and pushes processor usage to 80% or so for 30-200 seconds (on my single processor powerbook G4). I attach a sample taken during one of these lock-ups. they always resolve, and the pages then work fine until a reload event.

I believe this is digg's fault (i think this is a dup). Something about us handling onload correctly but Firefox being buggy, so we exec a ton of JS.
