NOTE: I first noticed this on RC 0.99.123.1.1, I was unable to reproduce in the non-RC version of Orion, however it seems as though 123.2 has been released for both beta and RC channels, and I was able to duplicate in both beta and RC under this version.
Steps to reproduce:
- I used a brand new profile (the history in the profile was from attempting to duplicate this). No extensions, ad blocking entirely disabled, etc.
- I navigated to cabelas.com (note that I've seen this in multiple places, most frustratingly while watching YouTube videos) but it was easiest to demonstrate/duplicate the issue on this site. Other shopping sites such as target.com and Walmart.com will likely work as well.
- Drill down through several pages of product listings. Note as you progress, the browser slows down. Images load much slower, scrolling halts and becomes sluggish, etc.
- Eventually, the page just completely "reloads". When this happens on YouTube as an example, the progress you made while watching the video is lost (i.e. it starts over at the beginning)
Expected behavior:
Pages should not randomly reload while browsing. I was unable to duplicate this in the non-RC version of Orion (this was only noticed in the most recent version, so after the most recent memory leak fix, which may or may not be related -- maybe your GC is too aggressive?)
