           Summary: Web Inspector, HTML5 Databases: Selecting Tables loads
                    entire table into main memory, even 1GB+ tables.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Web Inspector
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: michael.j.edgar at dartmouth.edu


If you have an HTML 5 database, and select one of its tables in the Web
Inspector, it then proceeds to load every single row to display it. If that
table is very large (500MB+), this can cause major system performance issues
very rapidly. My use-case is an e-mail web-app with 800MB of downloaded e-mails
stored offline - this caused my computer to become near-unusable until I
managed to kill WebKit.
