Linux on a dual core Opteron PC.

Of course, I see the same thing out of Firefox and Thunderbird on all
platforms.  Variations in exactly how they waste resources, but the end

The sad thing is that everything else sucks worse.

Well, I've heard good things about some of the Mac browsers, but I
haven't played with them much.
