I have a different scenario that might be easier to repro. First, only
large images are necessary, not only gifs. Large uptime seems to be
required, along with consequent large RAM usage. My last two crashes
happened approximately the same. Here's what I can recall about today's:

1-Crash was immediately precipitated by attempting to open
http://mrmazda.no-ip.com/SS/desktop-a-865-1792x1344x144.png in a new
tab.
2-RAM freed as result of crash: 285M
3-Uptime at crash: 45.5 hours
4-Heavy usage while up, including mail, news, 14 CZ tabs, and lots of
browser tabs, both regular and https
5-Bad image painting behavior noted shortly before crash:
http://sperling.com/dave2.png had been loaded and properly some time
before, but when I returned to it, the viewport was entirely blank, and
reload didn't help. What worked was as described in my first post in
this thread, sufficiently reducing the viewport size.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=197263#c21 checkin seems to
be about the time after which this later scenario began happening. I
can't really date it, because it produces nothing in popuplog.os2, and
it took me a while to recoginize the repro sequence. It may have nothing
to do with why I started this thread.
