Comment:

 The previous poster (although 4 years ago) shouldn't have closed the
 ticket with new status `worksforme`. With all due respect, unless I missed
 something (search `site:torproject.org "douggard"`), I don't think
 `douggard` is a developer who should close tickets that way. Looks like a
 mistake.

 `toggle extensions.torbutton.versioncheck_enabled to false` is a
 workaround but not a bugfix for this ticket.

 This issue as described in the original ticket is still happening.
 Therefore reopening.

 Could it be related to 10 years Firefox upstream unfixed bug
 [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=508427 High CPU on Linux
 even when in the background, possibly due to frequent polling]?
