846186 - Tilt error flooding error console (TypeError: mouseLerp is undefined)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Justin Dolske [:Dolske]]

I happened to use Tilt yesterday (for the first time in eons, I'm not a regular). I just now opened my Error Console to investigate a separate issue (I think -- cut'n'paste not working), and noticed that it's being absolutely _flooded_ with error messages.

I am literally seeing dozens and dozens of these fly by -- if I clear the messages, the scrollbar shrinks rapidly to it's minimum state within seconds. I also GC/CC debug messages scroll by every couple seconds (I have that pref enabled). The good news is that the browser seems quite responsive!

But this is clearly not a good thing.

I was able to reproduce this after restarting my browser.

* Tools -> Web Dev -> Toggle Tools
* Click the cube button
* move the 3D view around a bit to bask in its glory
* Command-W to close the tab.

[Approval Request Comment]
Bug caused by (feature/regressing bug #): closing a window with Tilt open results in a flood of TypeErrors in the Error Console
User impact if declined: Medium, not something a regular user may see, but having lots of errors rapidly showing up in the Error Console (if open) may affect browser responsiveness
Testing completed (on m-c, etc.): local, fx-team
Risk to taking this patch (and alternatives if risky): None, small simple change
String or UUID changes made by this patch: None
