81837 - shift+reload causes runs mozilla to 100% cpu [linux]

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Networking: Cache, defect)

Description

[robert]

linux 2.2 system here, mozilla build 2001051921, I've removed the NewCache and
Cache directories to repeat this bug, but thats not necessary.

steps to reproduce.

1. Visit the enemies castle at www.microsoft.com  
2. Dress yourself appropriately so you blend in, a good disguise is better than
none.
3. press shift+reload once, then twice , then three times.. If you prefer
clicking your heels together three times, thats okay too.
4. If needed, just press shift+reload a few more times and you'll be back in
Kansas, or if your not so lucky, Mozilla will be whoring your precious clock
cycles all to itself :(

I can reproduce this just on about any page, include www.mozillazine.org,.. Just
make sure that for everytime you press shift+reload, let the page load, then try
again.

Were not in Kansas anymore are we Raptor ?

Using a cvs tip build just finished, unable to reproduce dispite multiple
shift-reloads on both microsoft and mozillazine sites. Marking WFM.
