Re: [orca-list] Possible Bug: Pre-testing of Orca with Chromium/Chrome

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

Hi Janina.

Since I don't have a Peapod.com account, but do have an Amazon account, 
it would be helpful to have steps to reproduce the problem using Amazon.

Related aside: Chrome spawns quite a few threads. So I don't think 
that's the source of the problem. I expect something else is going on. 
But in order to debug it, I need to be able to reproduce it.

Thanks!
