Comment #3 on issue 18738 by [email protected]:  
MetricsService.CrashRenderers is flaky
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=18738

...pkastig may not like hearing the answer... but...

Given huanr's comment, it sounds like there is a race between the  
navigation to
about:crash (which should crash the renderer) and the test completing and  
deciding
that the render hasn't (yet) crashed.

It may well be that darin's sleep is not long enough on the current testing  
boxes and
setups.

Have we considered upping the sleep to several seconds??  It wouldn't be  
pretty...
but if I understand the problem, it is the correct way to go.  This test  
will always
be flaky (since the render may pause for an arbitrary length of time before
navigating), but adjusting the sleep should be able to significantly reduce  
the likelihood of a false alarm.
