Details

This test case is a document with a <UL> followed by 500 <LI>s followed by a
</UL>.

If you load this URL in IE, you'll see that it lays out list items
incrementally.

We don't show anything until we hit the </UL> - you'll notice that the same set
of list items broken up into 25 UL groups renders much faster (see test case at:
http://www.mozilla.org/nglayout/testcases/stress/500in25uls.html )

We should lay out long lists incrementally. We'll need to do this in order to
support an Aurora Front End in HTML.
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Summary: We aren't incrementally laying out large lists → content sink needs to support nested incremental reflow
Currently the content sink only allows the body to respond to incremental
(appended) reflow. This is a somewhat arbitrary limitation that needs repair.

It doesn't look like a DOM issue. QA contact re-assigned to Layout owner.

Since you are going to work on it, you can hold the open bug...

This should fall out of the content sink cleanup work...
