Comment 1

[BugBot [:suhaib / :marco/ :calixte]]

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Tabbed Browser' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Comment 2

[Cristina Horotan [:chorotan]]

Started to investigate this bug since it is failing really often as seen here.

Here are a few retriggers and backfills:

• bc1 on Linux 18.04 x64 WebRender opt - link
• bc7 on Linux 18.04 x64 WebRender debug - link
• bc11 on OS X 10.15 WebRender debug - link

:mviar could your push be the cause for this frequent failure? Can you please take a look?

If not, I suspect one more push that could be the culprit: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1958294#c4

@mviar, can you take a look at these high frequency failures?
backfills and retriggers indicate it's coming from bug 1952000

Thanks for flagging Sandor. I've attached a patch to address the issue. The 1% rollout patch was uplifted into 137, so we may need to uplift this fix as well.
