This crash is hit hundreds of times when running the LayoutTests/fast suite on 64-bit Windows (Release).

Reproducibly crashing on 'LayoutTests/fast/backgrounds/background-opaque-clipped-gradients.html'

Does this crash go away if you disable concurrent GC?

[Mark Lam]

I just took a look at this with Brent.  Here are some details:

1. The crash does not go away when we disable the concurrent JIT.
2. The crash does not manifest on a debug build.
3. The crash does not manifest when the test page is loaded in MiniBrowser.
4. The test in question doesn't exercise any JS code at all.

At this point, I'm not convinced that this is a JSC issue yet.  Brent is going to play with the optimization flags on VS2015 and see if that gives us any additional clues.

I have not been able to reproduce the crash, yet (WinCairo).

Have we tried to disable both concurrent GC and concurrent JIT?

[Per Arne Vollan]

I am not able to reproduce this on WebKit revision 201919, when running the test fast/backgrounds/background-opaque-clipped-gradients.html.

OK! Let's close it, then.
