In logs I have going back 6 months the errors "Attempting to run a JS callback during garbage collection." and "The offending callback was ..." only appear on one other date.
There is a similar message "Attempting to call back into JSAPI during the sweeping phase of GC." that appears more frequently. I think it will be hard to get good timing data when the console is freezing and unresponsive and I'm not sure when the issue might re- occur. I'm attaching the log from this session, as well as the log from my current session for comparison. ** Attachment added: "GnomeShellFreezeLog.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1876946/+attachment/5367200/+files/GnomeShellFreezeLog.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1876946 Title: gnome-shell freezing with "Attempting to run a JS callback during garbage collection." messages Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This happened soon after logging in. The entire desktop (mouse cursor included) would freeze for maybe 30 seconds at a time. The activities screen seemed to trigger it. The dock appeared empty. After a few minutes of this I rebooted and things seem to be alright now. Relevant log messages start on May 5 at 11:10 AM US/Eastern time. Similar messages appear on March 31st. I don't recall whether I experienced similar freezing behavior at that time.
