since about a week ago, Safari seems to have a problem with most forms online : as soon as I click on a menu or start typing in a textbox, it halts to a crawl: I get the beachball and each letter appear one by one, at about 30 seconds interval.
Funny thing, I have no problem with forms on Facebook or Google, but I get the problem almost everywhere else, including this forum.
Here's two websites with constistently give me trouble:
My bank (when I type my accound number) Movie schedule (when I click on the menu to select my theater)
I noticed that Safari's CPU usage goes up a lot when this happens (50 to 99%).
I update webkit daily and I reset Safari every day, so I don't think it's a problem with the cache.

Hi there,
To resolve this, go to the Preferences under Safari-->Preferences, select the AutoFill tab, and Uncheck the 3 Boxes on top. This should stop the hanging while filling out forms.
