Details

Bug 624652's STR are hanging my Nexus S again - filing this new bug.
> STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
>  1. Load http://m.digg.com
>  2. Long-press some front page story & choose "open in new tab." Repeat for 4-5
> stories total.

Within a minute or so (as the stories load), the phone becomes completely unresponsive, requiring battery removal.

This is with today's nightly.  The nightlies before this one would kill off tabs (popping up a "[reload tab]|[close tab]" dialog) before we got to this state, but that didn't happen to me in today's nightly. (perhaps because of the memory watcher removal in bug 630595?)

As far as I know this was fixed by Android updating to 2.3.3
