New issue 348354 by khym.cha...@gmail.com: Page freezes after changing
value of select/dropdown form element
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=348354

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like
Gecko) Chrome/34.0.1847.14 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to chrome://flags or http://forums.randi.org/search.php
2. Change the value of one of the dropdown menus.
3. Try to use the page.

What is the expected behavior?
Page keeps working.

What went wrong?
Page freezes.

Did this work before? Yes Unkown

Chrome version: 34.0.1847.14 Channel: beta
OS Version: Fedora 20
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 12.0 r0

Using the command line option "--disable-experiments" makes the problem go
away, so I tried individually disabling experiments via chrome://flags to
find which one was the cultript. However, disabling any one experiment
didn't fix the problem; only disabling them all fixed the problem. So, I
hope you'll be able to figure it out with the following info from
chrome://version:

Command line:

/usr/bin/google-chrome --user-data-dir=[REDACTED] --flag-switches-begin
--enable-accelerated-filters --enable-deadline-scheduling
--enable-device-discovery-notifications

value of select/dropdown form element
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=348354

Process freezes rather, so more than one tab can hang and even refuse to
close. Essentially *all* dropdown menu interaction seems broken, even the
Search Engine choice in the settings.

I forgot to mention, the flag is "--no-experiments". (And it seems to work
around the issue for me.)

Apologies for the extra noise.

I can close the frozen tabs.

changing value of select/dropdown form element
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=348354

I can reproduce the bug with the following combination of command line
options:

--enable-logging --v=1 --enable-fastback --enable-preconnect
--enable-preparsed-js-caching --enable-accelerated-2d-canvas
--enable-accelerated-layers --enable-threaded-compositing
--enable-deferred-2d-canvas --enable-advanced-fs --enable-gpu-plugin
--enable-crash-reporter --experimental-spellchecker-features
--enable-connect-backup-jobs --password-store=kwallet
--enable-expose-for-tabs --enable-experimental-form-filling
--enable-grouped-history --enable-interactive-autocomplete
--enable-omnibox-auto-completion-for-ime --purge-memory-button
--enable-rich-notifications --enable-translate-new-ux --disable-ipv6
--no-experiments

If I then change --enable-threaded-compositing to
--disable-threaded-compositing the problem goes away, so threaded
compositing has *something* to do with it. But if I then remove
--no-experiments the problem comes back despite threaded compositing still
being disabled.
