#11520: Pidgin unresponsive (high CPU) when XMPP (gtalk/facebook) send or receive

 I am using Fedora 10 with Pidgin 2.6.6.

 From 1 or 2weeks I am noticing that Pidgin becomes unresponsive when
 chatting with XMPP (I use gtalk and facebook) accounts.

 CPU usage increases only when a message arrives or I send a message (i.e.
 after pressing enter key). Pidgin stays in unresponsive state till the
 message is displayed in the window, afterwards Pidgin again becomes
 normal. i.e. Pidgin works normal as long as no message is received or is
 sent on XMPP

 I also have MSN and Yahoo accounts but this problem does not happen with
 those accounts.

 This bug is also reported by others:[[BR]]

 Here: (see last comment)[[BR]]

 and here: (ticket was closed though as Fedora no more supports F10)[[BR]]
 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=490665

 This bug cud be in previous versions of Pidgin but I started using XMPP
 after Facebook launched XMPP support. Earlier I thought it may be Facebook
 problem but this happens with Gtalk too.

 Please look in to it.

 Thanks.
