Sample report:

Crash in the plugin-container process. All the crashes appear to be while Firefox is in the process of tearing down the plugin instance, calling NPClass.invalidate on plugin-provided objects.

Just FYI, I'm seeing a significant reduction in incidence between 262 and 265 for this signature.

Comment 2

[Benjamin Smedberg]

https://crash-analysis.mozilla.com/bsmedberg/F909392315_____________________________________.svg agrees with you. There is still a small set of crashes, but the big regression which appeared in .262 is gone in .265.

Do you want to close out this bug and if the smaller signature ever comes up on the topcrash list I'll file a new one?

Comment 3

[Jeromie Clark]

Yeah, that sounds like a good plan.  I'm going to close the bug from our side as well.

We believe the remainder of what we're seeing is unrelated to the primary regression, and will hopefully be fully addressed with a couple other refinements we're making to address other issues in this area.
