F11: Browser does only continue to load when moving the mouse

Description
I so far - can only reproduce this on my F11 installation. Not on Soas for example.
Tomeu, I remember seeing this on the XO once as well - quite some time ago - do you remember anything about that?
Is that agressive power saving?

Gary, thanks. These are at least the same symptoms I am seeing. I can reproduce it quite regularly - so we have good chances we can get more data.

It was caused because Mozilla needs some randomness and the machine runs out of it. So I would say it needs to be fixed at the system level.

@tomeu: wouldn't I see the same in Firefox then, too? Do you have an idea to which component I could file it against?

Replying to erikos:

You should also see it in firefox and the component would probably be kernel.

- Milestone changed from 0.86 to 0.90
- Version changed from 0.84.x to 0.88.x
This has been quite noticable while testing SoaS Mirabelle.
We should highlight this in the "known issues" of our release notes.
...Mozilla needs some randomness and the machine runs out of it.
Does this mean that our software is too lean of activity? Could we
implement a lean workaround until the upstreams catch up?

This is not happening in current Browse. Closing as obsolete.
Yea I remember that too, but I thought it was just when clicking links e.g. you click a link and nothing happens, but then you move the cursor and the new page starts to load. Not sure if this is what you're seeing, but here's the old ticket.
"In Browse, links hang until cursor movement"
