908548 - Endless consumption of all download bandwidth

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: Downloads Panel, defect)

Description

[Biodark]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:23.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/23.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20130803215302

Steps to reproduce:

I started downloading many series from youtube, 9 or more at a time with the highest quality 1080p mp4 version using Youtube Video and Audio Downloader addon.
I experienced this before, I am not sure if it is an addon bug.
I downloaded all of these:

Actual results:

When all my downloads finished my 50mbps internet connection was still saturated by firefox with no end ever until closing the browser.


Expected results:

There should be no bandwidth usage

@Mark Banner:
Can you please explain the reasons for making this bug as a duplicate of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=576039 ?

I see no relevant similarities between the two bugs.

Right, this seems a different issue. We made so many changes to our networking, add-ons, and downloads code between Firefox 27 and Firefox 60 that it's quite possible this problem has been resolved by now. If not, it's probably better to file a separate, more detailed report.
