Thanks for the detailed analysis of affected revisions ranges. This is indeed a V8 problem.

It turned out to be relatively benign: in debug mode, there's a checking routine that is quadratic in the number of optimized closures, and this particular test happens to create a huge number of closures that due to recent improvements in V8 now share their optimized code. Release mode is not affected.

I have landed a workaround in V8's bleeding_edge branch, which will probably roll into Chromium tomorrow or so (look for V8 version 3.12.8).


As a side note, this test is pretty braindead and essentially tests undefined behavior (namely, sorting an array with a comparator function that always returns 1). We are lucky that it passes at all :-)
