[chris hofmann]

currently #23 in the non-hang non-flash crash list in reports for 2010 05 06.   we should keep an eye on this as user ramp up.

Comment 2

[chris hofmann]

this has fallen off.  only one crash yesterday.

that might indicate some kind of migration problem, but it doesn't appear to happen near start up.

[Scoobidiver (away)]

In trunk builds, there is a spike in crashes from 4.0b8pre/20101110 build.
It is now #38 top crasher in 4.0b8pre for the last 3 days.

Stack trace looks like:
Frame 	Module 	Signature [Expand] 	Source
0 	xul.dll 	base::BaseTimer_Helper::OrphanDelayedTask 	ipc/chromium/src/base/timer.cc:13
1 	xul.dll 	mozilla::plugins::BrowserStreamChild::Deliver 	dom/plugins/BrowserStreamChild.cpp:235

7 	xul.dll 	mozilla::ipc::RPCChannel::OnMaybeDequeueOne 	ipc/glue/RPCChannel.cpp:434
..

The regression range for the spike is:
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=df1d1ff6b489&tochange=0f17e5f1eb01

It is probably a consequence of bug 611593 who is going to be fixed in 4.0b8pre/20101116 build.

He says it happens when using the Download Helper extension to save a file. He's using 3.6.16, though.

Comment 7

[Wes Kocher (:KWierso) (Not reading bugmail; email directly if needed)]

He's using Download Helper 4.8.6, if that helps.

Comment 8

[Bob Clary [:bc] (inactive)]

I can't reproduce this in automation with Beta/11, Aurora/12, or Nightly/13 and current versions of Flash. Looking at crash-stats this is a 3.6-4.0 crash. Many people have older versions of Flash though at least one I saw was current. 

This has been on file since 2010 and not fixed and with 3.6 near EOL I'm going to WFM it.
