Actually, I misremembered. It didn't crash, it just stopped responding and I had to kill it (I sent one report to Apple, no Firefox crash reporter).

It hangs indeed with all Firefox versions I tried. Also with IE8, Google Chrome and Opera. Maybe sending with the wrong content type?

Well, yeah, it's trying to send the source of a 9.2M file PDF inline, which probably isn't as intended. Still, Firefox hanging seems bad.

Also, hung and then crashed my trunk nightly.

In Windows Task Manager it took like 500MB while hanging.

behaves poorly in terms of cpu and memory and stops after about 40-50seconds on fast 4GB machine, but not before firefox gobbled 800MB. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0b9pre) Gecko/20101227 Firefox/4.0b9pre

very likely a duplicate of a layout performance bug

Works fine on Aurora (8.0a2).
