Minefield nightlies since 26 April 2010 have started failing to complete the Peacekeeper benchmark (http://service.futuremark.com/peacekeeper/index.action). Minefield runs through the benchmark steps as normal and then stalls at the last step (string operations, text parsing #6/6).  There is no crashing, but Minefield just does nothing.   

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open http://service.futuremark.com/peacekeeper/index.action URL
2.Click on "benchmark this browser" button
3.Wait for Minefield to stall at last steps of benchmark.
Actual Results:  
Minefield fails to complete benchmark tests

Expected Results:  
Minefield completes Peacekeeper benchmark

I have not seen the Peacekeeper failure since May.  Minefield function in benchmarks has been stable, with steadily improving performance since that date.
