It often takes more than 128 pages, however. The problem seems to be that both JS_InitStandardClasses and JS_InitClass called from spidermonkey_get_interpreter run out of memory (tested with a breakpoint in JS_ReportOutOfMemory), and JS_InitClass returns NULL, which spidermonkey_get_interpreter happily saves as document_obj and gives back to JS_InitClass, which eventually crashes in one of these calls. The out-of-memory error may be caused by ELinks constructing a large number of JSContexts as described in ELinks bug 981: http4://bugzilla.elinks.cz/show_bug.cgi?id=981 Regardless of whether that one is fixed, I think we need to make spidermonkey_get_interpreter check the return values.
