Summary Out of memory exception is raised only once
Alexey Proskuryakov
Reported 2008-01-21 13:47:32 PST
Steps to reproduce: run-webkit-tests fast/js/out-of-memory.html fast/js/out-of-memory.html The second run of the the test often takes a huge amount of time, and fails (sometimes, crashes). That's because a global Collector::memoryFull flag is only reset when collect() sees that memory is not full any more - but in this case, a new instance of the test can fill the memory again before collect() is invoked. After an out of memory condition is detected, and an exception is raised on all ExecStates, further allocations go unchecked. As far as I can tell, this can easily happen in Safari, too.
