107288 - Memory usage and CPU spike when attempting to access newsgroup on news://bar.baen.com

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[[e-mail] (gone - use [e-mail] instead)]

Build ID:  Current trunk CVS, Windows 2000 (debug build).

news://bar.baen.com

user: stephend
pass: lzk1dvdlhu

Steps to Reproduce:

Just subscribe to any group, and try to select a newsgroup in the folder pane.

On an opt build, I get sustained CPU @ 98% usage, and memory keeps getting 
allocated like crazy (I suspect infinite recursion).

On my debug build, I get 4 assertion of 'morkBool_kFalse=0, morkConfig.cpp, 
line 94', and nsNNTPNewsgroupList.cpp, line 218.

trying to log in with this info:

Crap-ola, I'm blocked out, too.

Comment 5

[Håkan Waara]

Is a bug still a bug if there's no way to reproduce it? ;-)

Suggesting WFM if there's no testcase left.

agreed.  if I get to a state where I'm actually able to reproduce, I'll re-open.

Comment 7

verified (as much as it pains me to see this not be available).
