Bug Description
When closing the last epiphany browser window, the epiphany process uses 100% of the CPU time and the window takes several seconds (3-7) to close. The delay is quite annoying and often confuses new users who think that they did not click the close button correctly. This occurs on both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Ubuntu. I have seen this bug on three different machines running Ubuntu.

Thanks for your bug. Does it happen if you open open epiphany and close it after loading one page or just after extensively using it? What version of Ubuntu do you use? Does that happen on fast or slow boxes? Does you use some extensions non activated by default? Could you get a backtrace using gdb of what it's doing then?
before closing it
- gdb -p $(pidof epiphany)
(gdb) continue
then close it, and when it's using the CPU switch to gdb and hit Ctrl-C on you keyboard, then type "thread apply all bt" and copy that to a comment
