This is somewhat related to https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26171 which is also about needing better ways to test stuff (though that bug doesn't have to do with multi-threaded code). This is on my long-term radar. 127861 1 ap 2009-06-24 01:07:36 -0700 There are a few tests for races in LayoutTests in the form "repeat something for 0.5 sec" that did reliably trigger bugs, but that's not always possible, of course.
