Description pano_90 2010-05-30 04:45:59 PDT 
When browsing to web pages that contain very big pictures, the browsers will freeze and become unresponsive, while the tab with that picture is open. Closing that tab makes the browsers act normal again.
An example for this is the following picture (careful: 17 MB big, resolution:  9187×4387)

In rekonq and arora (with Qt 4.6.2) the site makes the browsers show the aforementioned behaviour. Konqueror (KHTML) and Firefox show the site fine, without freezing.

Reproduced with 4.7/trunk.

=== Bulk closing of Qt bugs ===

If you believe that this bug report is still relevant for a non-Qt port of webkit.org, please re-open it and remove [Qt] from the summary.

If you believe that this is still an important QtWebKit bug, please fill a new report at https://bugreports.qt-project.org and add a link to this issue. See http://qt-project.org/wiki/ReportingBugsInQt for additional guidelines.
