Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: epiphany-browser
After having Epiphany open for a few days, it will eventually stop
loading web pages. Any attempt to load a web page results in the
browser just reporting "Loading..." indefinitely. It doesn't matter if
it's refreshing a current page, clicking on a link to navigate to a new
page, or typing a URL into the location bar.
After it gets into this state, no new pages can be loaded. If I close
down all epiphany windows and reopen epiphany using the Ubuntu
applications menu, the new window that comes up still has this problem.
It's only after I do a "killall epiphany-browser" and a restart that I
am able to load web pages again.
While in this state, an strace of the epiphany-browser process shows the
following loop:
poll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=8,
events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=11, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=12,
events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=16, events=POLLIN},
{fd=10, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=42, events=POLLIN}, {fd=20, events=POLLIN},
{fd=21, events=POLLIN}, {fd=22, events=POLLIN}, {fd=14, events=POLLIN}, {fd=34,
events=POLLIN}], 14, 9) = 0
