Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1053934

Description

[Bryan Price]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:35.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/35.0
Build ID: 20140904030202

Steps to reproduce:

Run a C&C Tiberium Alliances game, and let it set idle.  


Actual results:

Firefox crashes with a dump.

https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/088f2385-a74b-4e5c-b03c-5326b2140904

First crash happened around twelve hours (less than 24) upgrading to 32.0

Second crash happened within minutes of restarting.



Expected results:

Game should have been able to run for weeks without crashing or restarting, as observed by 31.0 Firefox and earlier.  

I would note that I have Firefox Beta installed to run another C&C:TA account.  I did not run into this problem running the Beta.

I'm never quite sure what I need to compare to see if it is a dupe or not.  I've used related bugs before, and quickly found out that I wasn't wanted there, and that my bug was NOT their bug.  And so I report it and let others figure out if it's a dupe.

If you have a pointer to something that would help me determine that on my own, I sure would appreciate it.

You can try to reproduce this bug (and the crash type) in Firefox 34+, it should not occur, because the "status-firefox34: 	fixed" in bug 1053934.

If you successfully reproduce (with crash reports), you may encountered another issues, reopen this.
