PyV8 crashes in some circumstances

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

I have a few reports about crashes of PyV8 on OSX in my Emmet plugin for 
Sublime Text. The problem is that I’m on OSX too and I can’t reproduce this 
bug (as well as thousands of other users).

I’ve attached a sample crash log.

Here are symptoms:
1. User starts editor
2. User tries to type something in editor. In this case, there might be 
frequent access to JS context (to get a list of code completions)
3. App crashes

On step 2, the only thing I do is just an array population, which might be a 
bit CPU intensive. No explicit GC invocation.

Do you have any idea what’s happening here?

I was able to reproduce this crash: it happens every time I’m trying to load 
and parse (with http://marijnhaverbeke.nl/acorn/) many JS files. Looks like it 
happens every time automatic garbage collector is invoked.
