Both still seem to hang. I can't scroll around the 20 lines, although
if I repeatedly scrolled down to the next page, minimise, maximise,
until I find the code, I can get around it.
The problem seems to be based around receiving certain events - in
this case a reply to XMLHttpRequest. I've actually seen the
breakpoint trigger (the breakpoint arrow shows), and then hang, with
the filesystem getting absolutely hammered, making the system fairly
unstable.
Breakpoints also sometimes don't trigger for some reason. I had to do
a refresh several times just now in order to get the breakpoint to
hit.
If there are no events triggering, Firebug works beautifully, and
breakpoints work well - it only seems to start playing up when events
are received.
