Bug 130301 – element.click does synchronous IPC to get the screenRect.

• Component: WebKit2
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Andreas Kling]

Actual IPC happens here:

IntRect WebPage::rootViewToScreen(const IntRect& rect)
{
    IntRect screenRect;
    sendSync(Messages::WebPageProxy::RootViewToScreen(rect), Messages::WebPageProxy::RootViewToScreen::Reply(screenRect));
    return screenRect;
}

This is showing up as idle stalls in DoYouEvenBench occasionally.

Should be pretty easy to reverse this so UI process sends the mapping to the web process.

The changes in bug 163648 are the practical solution to this problem.
