Crashy, the crash app, is crashing!

I just noticed from my Firefox crash log (about:crashes) that it crashed seven times on the 16th of October, 2013, of which four occurred between 1320 and 1420. I may have to revise my opinion of my own ability to manage anger, as nobody seems to have been hurt.

I think it may be this bug or related, but they’re deluding themselves if they think it was fixed in FF25 or 26; it’s been a constant since last summer. I hadn’t had a browser crash for 6 months before that. At the moment I’m getting four a day on average. Also, it’s probably significant that it memleaks to 3.5GB each time…

Obviously, it’s a wontfix because they’re too busy with the facebook drone or something else shiny.

Ah. Or is it this little beauty?

It’s almost like something is just holding on to everything in sight.

Yes, yes, it does. Says the reporting user:

the latest crashes with the memory report. today has been a trying day

You could say that again.
