            Bug ID: 201822
           Summary: Erratic, then persistent page load failures
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari Technology Preview
          Hardware: Macintosh
                OS: macOS 10.14
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: New Bugs
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: w0nka at mac.com

I typically try to get nice repro steps, but this one's slippery so bear with me. That last two releases of Safari Technologies Preview (Release 90 and Release 91) have not reliably loaded pages. These include major sites like Github, JIRA, and even Apple.com. As I wrote above, I can't specifically figure out what the scenario or cause of this is. Here is the observed behavior:

1. Everything loads fine.
2. After some time, (sometimes it's an hour, sometimes it's day), certain sites stop loading.
3. Restarting STP resolves temporarily resolves the issues.
4. Go to 1.

Github does start complaining about "Failed integrity metadata check", but I suspect this is a symptom rather than the root cause. It's clearly not an actual failure as the issue goes away along with the other page load failures after restarting STP.

Again, I am sorry for filing such a vague bug. I am filing the ticket since it's survived two releases and something that seems hard to catch in testing as the behavior only occurs after some time.

Thanks,
Jack Wellborn.
