This bug is for crash report bp-fd615056-10c2-4297-a3ed-9b8400201029

Just encountered crash in TB 82.0b2 (64-bit)...

I doubt your crash is related to the component from which you cloned the bug. I'd say a high probability related to your many other crashes https://mzl.la/3kFgr2Q

Because manually managing memory in that case (which was a firefox crash) artificially limits memory size.

Component: Widget: Win32 → General
No longer depends on: 1649023
Product: Core → Thunderbird
Summary: Crash in [@ OOM | small] → Thunderbird Crash in [@ OOM | small]
Version: Other Branch → Thunderbird 82

Coincidentally, in the last few days OOM | small crashes spiked significantly, roughly 50% on Monday Nov 2. (perhaps related to large version 78 uptake?)

This crash suggests you may have many other recent crash reports. Do they all have the same crash signature?

And the question remains, are you seeing some new crash, something related to your previous crash reports, or something older/generic like

  • Bug 1256224 - Thunderbird Windows crashes in OOM | small, even though Thunderbird is NOT out of memory per crash data
  • Bug 1353702 - Crash in PtrToNodeMatchEntry (CompareCacheMatchEntry) and OOM | small during CC. memory corruption, or memory leak?

Hope that help...

Yes, in the sense that we can correlate it to your other crash signatures. The October crash reports are all OOM | small.

So your crashes come in short bursts? (October was four, August was two)

Thanks - none of these crashes is OOM | small

I suspect the key to sorting out most of your crashes will be from fixing imap threading, in the likes of bug 1175168.

FWIW, OOM | small is on the rise for version 91. I'd be surprised if you didn't have recent crashes with that signature.

I suspect the key to sorting out most of your crashes will be from fixing imap threading, in the likes of bug 1175168.

The fix for bug 1175168 came in 94.0b2 on 10/7. What are some of your crash IDs since then when using the newer version?

Just got an end-user that keeps having Thunderbird 91.2.1 Crash Report [@ OOM | small ] when opening the Preferences tab... it seems like it freeze TB, "Not responding" appears... and then at some point it crashes... report below...

bp-a58d2d49-1ee2-4222-af22-730f30211101

I'll keep the need info for now... to attempt answering your question...

In my current case (Bug 1738460 Comment 0) removing en-GB language pack (as suggested here Bug 1738460 Comment 5) and dictionary from Thunderbird 91.2.1 seems to have possibly fixed the problem... awaiting further feedback from end-user to confirm for sure...

End-user also mentioned that opening pdf files in TB not always work... it usually works the first time... but the second time it crash TB... in the period mentioned by end-user I only see [OOM | small] reports but I haven't been able to reproduce the issue to check which report is exactly generated in that case... and end-user was not exactly sure of date/time, so could also be possibly Bug 1738460.

End-user confirmed that issue is not resolved. So removing the language pack seemed to be the solution. I also set TB to open Adobe Reader instead of TB Preview for PDF... as removing the language pack allowed me to do so in Preferences (without crashing TB).

But, as a percentage, very few crashes with that signature have a language pack installed.

However, perhaps many new shutdown crashes also have language packs installed. For example all of this signature from the past month have a langpack installed https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/signature/?release_channel=%21release&product=Thunderbird&signature=AsyncShutdownTimeout%20%7C%20profile-change-teardown%20%7C%20Extension%20shutdown%3A%20lookout%40s3_fix_version%2CExtension%20shutdown%3A%20%7Ba300a000-5e21-4ee0-a115-9ec8f4eaa92b%7D&date=%3E%3D2021-10-05T23%3A15%3A00.000Z&date=%3C2021-11-05T23%3A15%3A00.000Z


OOM | small is a different matter:

  1. the version 91 crash rate is 4-5 times higher than version 78 (over the same week of late October when the user population of was about equal)
  2. approximately half (statistically significant) of version 91.2.1 crashes have a language pack installed, for example bp-7d9f0702-704e-41ca-bed1-124920211029 (unlike some other signatures, I spot checked a few, and none of the crash reports have language pack installed)

I am very happy we now know what causing the sharp increase in OOM | small crashes. I was about to put in major effort to determine the cause, and now I don't need to. THANK YOU Richard.

So, we VERY much need the following fixed in Thunderbird 91 - Bug 1642415 - Memory leak and high CPU when opening prefs/options/settings or on startup, due to language packs matching build locales with older translations that lack some strings causing excessive locale loading

Wayne, why do you think this bug depends on Bug 1742991 rather than Bug 1728744, wasn't it identified that the root cause was linked to language pack rather than imap/url?

Highly likely to be fixed by bug 1728744 for Thunderbird 91.4.0.

Just to confirm applying TB Dec 2021 updates and re-installing Dictionary en-GB and Language pack en-GB no more Not Responding issue or crash observed. So issue seems fixed. Thank you all.
