The Avatar that I use is a .gif with a transparant background. Whenever people open up a chat window with me. Their CPU spikes to 100% and stays there (mine is unaffected). It’'s annoying. If I convert the .gif to .jpg, all is well in the world.
Any idea why? I would attach the avatar to this post, but I don’‘t know how. I’'ll email it is someone provides me with a email address.
Thanks all.
Hi,
you may upload it at http://imageshack.us/ if you don’'t mind. Is it just a special transparent picture or do you see this problem with all transparent gif files?
You should be able to convert it to PNG - I also use a transparent PNG image and up to now no-one did complain.

PS: If you have the time and are interested you may read Different ways to obtain a thread dump of the Java VM[/url] and try to get a thread dump of one client with 100% CPU. It should help to identify the looping thread.
The stack traces, I did create four, and they all look different but somehow the same:

Hi
I did try it with another 25x31 pixel gif, this did not cause a problem.
I did convert it to 32x32 -> http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/1632/pimp2vr9sr.gif and for me it runs fine. The 25x31 as a .png also runs fine: http://img311.imageshack.us/img311/2411/pimp2vr8qy.png so it seems to be a Spark or Java issue. You can track it here: SPARK-287
