I'm able to get Safari to hang reliably by doing the following:

0. Create a Google Account.
1. Visit http://finance.google.com/.
2. Click Portfolios.
3. In a new portfolio, make sure the caret is in the Symbol(s) text input.
4. Type "AA", which will cause an autocompletion dropdown to appear.
5. Arrow down to AAPL and press Enter to select it.
6. Tab to the next text input.
7. Twiddle thumbs.

As a user, I did not feel like spending my evening debugging this mess:

I figured I'd let the developers take a crack at it. ;)
