On my local mac build, I see these errors all the time when using ./mach test --profiler. On my artifact build (with --enable-artifact-build-symbols) I don't see these errors as we don't enter the code path that has issues.

On my linux local build, I only see the "ERROR Exception while forwarding request: POST data should be bytes, an iterable of bytes, or a file object. It cannot be of type str." error.
