            Bug ID: 157774
           Summary: Web Inspector: Slow and unusable when catching stack
                    overflow exception
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: sbarati at apple.com

Repro steps:
1. Enable break on all uncaught exceptions
2. Write a program that infinitely recurses without tail calls
3. Reload page
4. Inspector is effectively inoperable.

Maybe we should just not allow stack overflow to be catchable if the experience is like this?
