Details

In bug 1374797 it was pointed out that we block collection of the atoms zone when any helper threads used for parsing are present and that this is overly conservative. We only need to block collection while they are parsing. When a task has moved onto the finished list it doesn't need to block collection any more. I don't know whether changing this would make a significant difference.
