           Summary: Loading completely stalls, requiring a restart
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh PowerPC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Page Loading
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: kevin at rhubarbproductions.com


I've been wanting to post this issue for a while, but I've been reluctant since
it's not easy to reproduce. When I'm webdesigning I tend to refresh a lot and
this is where it comes up most often.

I'm finding that if I refresh a page repeated one after the other eventually
Safari or Webkit will just stop loading anything. This includes even stopping
the page load and trying to load another site. It all just stops. I've also had
this happen during normal (non-refreshing) page loading, possibly triggered by
loading tabs and jumping to new tabs to load new pages before the previous tabs
have finished loading.

Basically it appears that somewhere the ability to load content gets tied up.
Maybe my refreshing of a page is overlapping a previous refresh or the new file
I've uploaded hasn't fully saved to the server yet before I've refreshed. Maybe
opening to many connections to close together is glitching. I really don't know
and as I said it's a bit hard to pin down. I recommend trying to go to any site
and refresh the page rapidly and even refresh before waiting for the previous
one to load.
