145436 - Hangs up while eating memory and CPU (No talkback available)

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Networking: HTTP, defect)

Description

[Zappa]

While loading specified URL I always observe the same behaviour for both Mozila
1.0rc1 and 1.0 of 20020516 builds:

Problem description:
Page starts to load and top and left sides of page are displaied then main
content starts to load itself and Mozila becomes totaly unresponsive. It
continues to grow in memory usage and consume up to 98% of CPU. I waited up to
half of an hour and Mozila still didn't come back.
What should be: 
Regardless of the page structure Mozilla must respond at least to users's
request to stop loading.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start mozila
2. Open specified URL
Reproduceable: always
