Description Marian Csontos 2011-09-06 06:59:06 UTC
Description of problem:
When opening J:127555 in FF6 (latest in F15) it is running forever at very high CPU usage and produces no results.

Likely related to the size of a job: this one has 5 recipes with 196 tasks and 1120 results each.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
WebUI: beaker-0.7.00
firefox-6.0-1.fc15.x86_64 (with clean profile)

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open J:127555 in FF6
2. Click "Results" button
  
Actual results:
No results but high CPU and memory consumption.
Looks like a memory leak: firefox climbs some 900MiB over its normal memory usage and counting. I was not patient enough to see it OOM-killed...

Expected results:
Yeah, results were expected.

Additional info:

I also saw following alert:

> A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding.
> You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script
> will complete.

> Script: https://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/static/javascript/local_datetime.js:30 

IMO it may not be necessary bug in local_datetime, but FF just break the execution at given line...

This is almost certainly due to the datetime localisation script, which is not very efficient.

Maybe it should detect when the page has become particularly large and disable itself, leaving just UTC timestamps? Users might find that a little unexpected though.

Comment 2 Dan Callaghan 2011-11-09 06:20:31 UTC
We can fix this by avoiding jQuery's $().text() function, and using the .textContent attribute instead. In Firefox 7 on my machine this reduces the script's runtime to a few seconds even when loading very large results.
