           Summary: crash opening several tabs in the background from an rss
                    page (digg)
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://digg.com
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: New Bugs
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: rdas7 at yahoo.com


I open the following rss feed page:

feed://digg.com/rss/index.xml

Clicking on several stories rapidly to open them in new tabs and load in the
background causes processor to ramp up to 100% and safari becomes unresponsive.
Only way out is to force quit.

This is reproducable on two machines, an iMac 2.0Ghz G5 (no iSight) and a
PowerMac DP 2.3GHz G5, both running 10.4.5. Originally experienced this bug in
release version of Safari, so switched to nightly builds, but problem is
persistent (first noticed roughly Jan.)

My brother on a PowerMac DP 1.25GHz G4 (no nightly build of webkit) does not
experience this problem as tested.
