Description
This github page causes heave CPU load!!
[As long as I'm using another browser most of the time, and update FF rarely] I've opened this page in FF 23; CPU load was at about 6-8%. Having similar problems earlier, I've [thinking it is caused by FF] updated FF to the latest version. After that CPU load became about 12-20%!!!
Not sure if it is caused by FF or by some poorly-written script or smth, so I wrote this both to FF support and to you...

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported CPU usage in Firefox on the GitHub page and compare it with another browser, as the issue provides no file or test entry point. Inspect whether the page's JavaScript or Firefox is responsible; done means identifying the source and documenting or fixing the cause.
