Details

Here is a long profile of Firefox showing only one about:blank tab on Linux: https://share.firefox.dev/3xXkCzh

This timer is created by the code at https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/aa3ccd258b64abfd4c5ce56c1f512bc7f65b844c/gfx/thebes/gfxFcPlatformFontList.cpp#1325-1331

Would there be another more power efficient way to get a notification when the font configuration changes? If not, could this timer be stopped when the user has been idle for a long while?
