Tried to repeat it here, but it behaved this time, in spite of using 
large amounts of memory. I'll keep the logfile, though, in case it's 
of interest.

With best wishes,

With suppress_curl_debug set to 0 in the Choices file before NetSurf is
run.

r11894 here - takes ages to expand the contents of the frame, but 
after it has expanded NetSurf shows as using 0% of CPU, according to 
TaskUsage.

> Gobbles up the memory, too.

Yes, that does happen here. about 4MB in app space, and over 50MB in 
DA.

Unfortunately, despite following the instructions to the letter, this RISC
OS enabled developer couldn't reproduce the problem on 5.16 either.

A log file from an affected copy of NetSurf might help (although that's
not a promise that anything will get fixed soon: it depends on what's
wrong and what the fix entails).  Don't post it to this list, though...

It takes a long time "converting 1379990 bytes", but then expands the 
navigation menu. It also takes a lot of processing time when you close 
the window. However I don't see the problem reported on the tracker.
(r11931, KRPC 300MHz, 128MB, OS 6.16)

This bug is not reproducable on Linux/GTK and appears to be related to frames.
Unfortunately it'll need to wait for one of the RISC OS enabled developers to
have a gander.

Yes, does exactly what druck describes here; r11927 and RISC OS 5.16. 
Gobbles up the memory, too.

Bug "Out of date"

2011-03-08 Thread David J. Ruck
What is the reasoning behind marking a bug "out of date"? Particularly 
when it is easily reproducible with the last test build by one click on 
the given URL.


The bug in question was a serious one which caused NetSurf to use almost 
100% of CPU, not just during rendering but after rendering had stopped, 
and even the window on that website had been closed. The only remedy 
being to kill the process.
