During the landing of the patch for the bug 453432 it was discovered that some tests for http server fail. The further problem investigation showed that the test_request_line_split_in_two_packets.js test fails if there are conditions to trigger GC (GC trigger factor is set to 1600). If the GC trigger factor is set to (uint32) -1 the test does not fail. The original conclusion is that during the test run the GC is triggered and this causes the test to fail. So the additional investigation of problem is required. The bug is marked as a security bug since it can cause GC hazard.
Andrei, are you still seeing this bug? I guess we should try running xpcshell tests with gczeal.
Ping. Andrei, can you still reproduce this bug?
