DOM Hanoi test

Firefox doesn't seem to show any memory growth, oscillating around low values.

I tested with a debug build of ToT on Mac OS X 10.6

I don't know about memory growth but it does hang browser tab and show banner that "this page was reloaded..." after few seconds. Chrome Canary 106 crash this and show "Aw Snap" faster than Safari and crashes tab as well while Firefox Nightly 105 show warning banner that "this page is slowing down Nightly...".

Is this relevant or we need to something? or we can mark this as "RESOLVED LATER"? Thanks!

This got much worse than before, I see memory growth to at least 5GB before the tab gets killed.
Comment 4 Alexey Proskuryakov 2022-08-01 13:40:09 PDT 
But maybe the test is buggy, and Firefox used to have some bug that canceled that out?

By the way - Firefox Nightly 105 also crashed a generated this crash report:

Might be some interest to you. Thanks!
