From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22 i686; en-US; 0.8.1) BuildID: 2001032311 Browser cannot be stopped while receiving huge (unlimited) amounts of data. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enter above URL Actual Results: Browser GUI is unresponsible and don't show again when window is hidden and showed again. Expected Results: GUI is responsive, browser can be stopped by pressing 'Stop' button. There is a PHP script that enters an infinite loop and sends data to browser infinitely. This is obvious bug in my script but this clearly demonstates bug in Mozilla.

I can reproduce this on my PowerMac G3 running Mac OS 8.6 using Build 032308. A force quit was needed to regain control of the Mac. Confirming bug and setting Platform/OS to All/All.

Blocks bug 30942, "Browser should remain responsive during most infinite loops". Networking?
Nominating for nsbeta1. Please consider for + if UI unresponsive on large but still reasonable pages. - if this is truly an edge case. Thanks!

i suspect the real problem here is the fact that we don't put hard limits on the size of cached data. gordon is working on a fix for this. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 91795 ***
