60 second sample of WebKit when it hangs

Summary: Sometimes WebKit decides to hang for a significant period of time,
around 2 or 3 minutes or so, before deciding to un-hang itself and continue
loading.  Typically this happens just after clicking on a specific link, as
WebKit tries to start loading a new page.  This problem can happen multiple
times in a single session, too; after experiencing the problem, it can happen
again in another few minutes.


Steps to Reproduce:

1.  Open WebKit.

2.  Do a bunch of web browsing for ~15 minutes or so.  Usually WebKit must have
been open for a while before the bug is triggered.

3.  Click on a link that will open a new window.  (It doesn't seem to be any
specific link that triggers the bug, but it *does* usually seem to be a link
that opens a new window.)  Note that WebKit hangs for about 2-3 minutes before
it decides to open the window and continue loading as normal.


Expected Results: I expect WebKit not to hang when I click on a link that opens
a new window.


Actual Results: WebKit hangs for 2-3 minutes.


Regression: This has only happened in recent builds of WebKit, probably for the
last month or so.  I don't remember this happening before with builds of WebKit
used in the Safari 4 beta, but it has been happening with Safari 4 final.


Notes: I have no InputManagers installed.  I am using WebKit r45702.  I have
also attached a sample of WebKit for 60 seconds when this problem happens.
