Zotero/Firefox seems to hang when creating items from large web pages
When I use the 'create new item from current page' button in Zotero to add large (>~1MB) text-only web pages Firefox often hangs with 100% CPU usage until the unresponsive script timeout kicks in (currently set to 60s on my setup, but making it longer doesn't help).
Example:
Try this 5MB text-only web page:
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/51143/000104746907001434/a2175501zex-13.htm
A full reload takes about 15 seconds on my machine/connection. However, if I click 'create new item from current page', Firefox/Zotero are still chugging away 60 seconds later when the timeout kicks in. Can ayone reproduce this? If so, does anyone have any idea what's up and/or if there is a work-around?
Thanks,
Martin
