27.7.2 high cpu consume

Sorry for the bad english :3
After installing a recent version, 27.7.2 I noticed an absurd rise in CPU consumption and this happens even without doing anything, even being just in the "about: home".

>>>Try to reproduce the bug. Restart your PC, load up the browser, clear your cache and cookies, and see if it wasn't a fluke.
Not only did I do this as I reinstalled the whole browser, deleting its vestiges before and the same problem persists. Obviously I tested with and without the add-ons.
>>>Check, if possible, on a different computer if the bug occurs as well. If not, include this information in your bug report!
I tested the same version in Windows Vista and the problem was not found. I must say that I installed the previous version (27.7.1) in Windows 7 and consumption returned to normal.
>>>Make a note of the exact steps to reproduce the bug.
I simply have to open the browser and it already starts consuming 20~40% of my cpu. Previously it only consumed 0~3%.
>>>Do a search on Mozilla's Bugzilla to see if the bug is known, and if so write down the bug number. Try a few searches at least with different relevant keywords, as not all of the bugs there have logical or directly related titles.
I did not find much that I could relate to this situation.
>>>Your Operating system
Windows 7 Ultimate (SP1).
>>>The exact version of Pale Moon you are using (desktop/portable. 32/64 bits, exact version number)
Desktop - 64 bits - Version 27.7.2.
>>>Basic hardware information if relevant: CPU, graphics card, amount of RAM
CPU/APU: AMD A4-6300 - RAM: 4 GB - SSD: SANDISK 120 GB
>>>A description of the problem
As I said, I just upgraded to the latest version and with a day of use I noticed increases in consumption.
I do not know how to expose the problem, it just happened.

For now I will use the previous version. :thumbup:
