Ublock: Full page download hangs when uBlock Origin is active

Created on 7 Jan 2016  路  3Comments  路  Source: gorhill/uBlock

How to reproduce

  1. Go to http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/US-Psychologe-Brainstorming-funktioniert-nicht-3058339.html or the main page http://www.heise.de/
  2. right click and choose "save as ..."
  3. Save the full page to the local disk.

The download hangs at "3/42 B". Disabling uBlock Origin allows the download to complete fine. But I don't really want to archive ads ...

Logger

The logger only contains:

08:59:23 ||optimizely.com^$third-party -- object http://cdn.optimizely.com/js/2310910166.js
08:59:23 object http://www.heise.de/js/plugins/jquery-ui-1.8.18_cycle.custom.min.js
08:59:23 object http://www.heise.de/js/jquery/jquery-1.7.1.min.js
08:59:23 object http://www.heise.de/js/mobile-deflect.min.js

or for the main page:

09:03:08 ||yieldlab.net^ -- object http://ad.yieldlab.net/yp/66424,66430,66442,66444,66446?ts=20160107090259

09:03:08 object http://www.heise.de/js/mobile-deflect.min.js

So it seems to just hang on the first blocked request.

Configuration changes

I just deinstalled uBlock and installed uBlock Origin, no changes to the settings were done. uBlock has the same issue. Did net even activate Easylist Germany.

Versions

uBlock Origin 1.5.2
Google Chrome 49.0.2613.0 canary (64-bit)
Windows 10

Other extensions

Google Docs 0.9
Google Docs Offline 1.1

I can't reproduce with Chromium 47.

However I can reproduce with Google Chrome 49. It stops downloading right after a network request has been blocked. Same issue if using ABP. So it's seems to be a browser-specific behavior, and I don't see how this can be worked around other than by whitelisting the site before using _"Save as..."_.
