Comment #2 on issue 729 by ultimus: V8's preemption mechanism (Locker::StartPreemption()) is broken
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=729
I have had some success with changing the call to a longer Sleep(), say 10. But admittedly this is a complete hack, hurts performance, and isn't guaranteed to work all the time, especially under load/contention.
We need a proper scheduling strategy fix. -- v8-dev mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-dev
