Attachment: Testcase

It seems like opening the testcase on Mac stops rendering in Firefox completely.  I saw the following calls being made in Instruments:

[Benoit Jacob [:bjacob] (mostly away)]

APItrace says that the following pattern is repeated infinitely.

The most likely explanation would be a bug in emscripten's handling of the original application's animation loop. In WebGL, compositing only happens after the current JS callback has returned, so you have to return at least at the end of the frame drawing.

The absence of any compositor commands in this trace suggests that the JS callback doesn't return.

Hmm, OK, I'll look into this.

Comment 3

[Alon Zakai (:azakai)]

Perhaps try to make it draw 1 frame and halt (say by throwing an exception), and see what that does.

This is probably my own mistake.  I have not had the time to investigate it, but I'm convinced that it's not anything important for Gecko, definitely not a priority for the games effort.
