Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Mozilla Labs :: Operator, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101203 Firefox/3.6.13
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101203 Firefox/3.6.13

With http://cakephp.lighthouseapp.com/projects/42648-cakephp/tickets?q=session+duplicate open, when I switch to it Firefox stalls (CPU pegged at 100%) long enough to pop open the stop script dialog (confirming it's Operator) - I gave it 5 stop script dialogs and it still didn't finish. Possibly related to #622241, though the page is somewhat shorter; perhaps there are similarities.

Seen break locations:
chrome://operator/content/Microformats/Microformats.js:1275
chrome://operator/content/Microformats/Microformats.js:1995
chrome://operator/content/operator.js:1453
chrome://operator/content/Microformats/Microformats.js:1275

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open http://cakephp.lighthouseapp.com/projects/42648-cakephp/tickets?q=session+duplicate
2. Switch to other tab
3. Switch to that tab again
Actual Results:  
Firefox stalls, pops up stop script dialog.

Expected Results:  
Instantly able to interact with page.
