Hello WebKit team,

I've been able to replicate some strange behavior on Chrome 26 (Mac) and Safari 
6.0.4 (Mac). Essentially, rendering an HTML template that has extra whitespace 
/ text-nodes in it is incredibly slow.Rendering the same template with the 
whitespace stripped results in a 400x speedup.

Here's a detailed explanation of the bug:

And here's a JSFiddle demonstrating it:

Any idea what about WebKit causes this? Firefox 26, IE9, and Chrome Canary 
don't exhibit the bug.

Cheers,
Steven…
