           Summary: Acid3 pauses noticeably while running test 26
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 525+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: darin at apple.com


While running test 26, Acid3 pauses. That's because the test forces garbage
collection as a sort of mini performance test. I don't know how fixable this
is, but even on my fast computer with a Release build the pause is noticeable.
The problem is that the faster we run the other tests, the more even a slight
pause is noticeable, so I'm not sure this is practical to fix.
