I used to have this problem with myspace.com (and a couple of other sites).

I'll be damned if I remember what Xserver option I changed to fix it,
but I *think* it was in X86Config:

Ah yeah- I commented it. Now, this is for the "radeon" driver on XOrg
7.1.0 for an ATI X600, so YMMV. This used to be "true":

Option                  "EnablePageFlip" "false"        # this seems to drive up CPU load (when "true")
