[Mozilla Enterprise] Very high cpu usage with FF 8x

hello everyone.

This is not about ESR -version so no policies etc. just odd behavior 
about FF 8x that I have noticed. When I play a dosbox game in fullscreen 
mode for some reason FF in the background starts using a lot of CPU and 
after a while when I stop using fullscreen FF is frozen so that I can't 
close it or minimize properly. I have to kill the process from taskmgr.

Anybody else seen this behavior? Any clues what might be causing it?

It's not critical problem, but I'm asking because it is odd how dosbox 
in fullscreen can cause this in FF. I don't remember FF acting like that 
in 7x series. Could there be a memory leak or somesuch in 8x that could 
then affect next generation of esr?
