REPRODUCTION
I was able to reproduce this on macOS release ToT with the following with high CPU usage:

run-webkit-tests --no-build --no-retry --no-show-results --exit-after-n-failures=1 --expect-pass --iterations=2000 --force -f --release inspector/page/setShowPaintRects.html 


I am going to mark expectations as pass fail while this pends investigation.

Looks like a fix was attempted at 251585@main where we deferred test results dump to the teardown so they dont trigger paints however there is a timing issue causing failures for in the second test. Sometimes while dumping results from the first test to the DOM, setShowPaintRects state is still true and subsequently paint rects are created that leak into the second test which expects no paint rects.

The fix here is to explicitly set setShowPaintRects to false before printing those results to DOM.
