Running the iOS Mail app with a Debug build of WebKit, some of its web views used for message display are constantly failing the ASSERT(scale == [webView->_scrollView zoomScale]) in WKWebView.mm’s contentZoomScale(WKWebView *). In a typical example, one sees (lldb) p scale (CGFloat) $0 = 0.25 (lldb) p [(UIScrollView*)webView->_scrollView.m_ptr zoomScale] (CGFloat) $1 = 1

Then the assertion hits when the WKWebView is being resized. My guess is that the 0.25x scale is some WKWebView content autosizing minimum scale, and the assertion hits when the WKWebView is being prepared for display.
