Fail again, but on Qt bot:

Another failure:
http://build.webkit.org/results/GTK%20Linux%2064-bit%20Debug/r53335%20(2435)/http/tests/xmlhttprequest/event-listener-gc-diffs.txt

This test was last touched by Sinchiro 4 months ago, and looks to be originally from Geoff.
http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/LayoutTests/http/tests/xmlhttprequest/event-listener-gc.html

I'm not sure I really understand the failure condition.  It's possible that sometimes these listeners are getting incorrectly destroyed?

The test still fails in the same way, and on Mac too.

Tweaked test output a little bit in <http://trac.webkit.org/r179749>, hoping that this will shed some light on the issue.

As more and more tests depend on this, we should probably add a way to force layout to internals, and then only use "document.body.offsetTop" when outside the test runners.

It still fails :)
Comment 20 Alexey Proskuryakov 2015-02-11 10:11:29 PST
Looks like even with the forced layout, there is enough work on the main thread that has higher priority than the timer.

I could finally reproduce locally, and have a patch that fixes that, but want to do a bit more investigation into why timers are so low priority.

I couldn't find any relevant mistakes in how timers function. The work that delays our zero delay timer is from run loop observers that are serviced earlier, and IPC messages are also serviced earlier.

So, let's just stop using a timer here.

No need for "window." on these lines of code.
