Subj : User Breakpoints ( int 3) from js_PurgeDeflatedStringCache

Hi,

My Spidermonkey JS Engine and the application is built _without_ the
JS_THREADSAFE.

My application is built as Debug Multithreaded DLL. However the calls
to Spidermonkey are from one single thread. This thread is woken from
time to time and calls to spidermonkey are controlled with a mutex (the
behaviour is same without mutex locks also)

At any point of time more than one runtimes might be active. Each
runtime has its own context and doesnot share variables with the other
runtime.

When i try to Destroy a context ( followed by destroy runtime ) i get
"User Breakpoints" ( int 3) from "js_PurgeDeflatedStringCache"

if i just "continue" from the "user Breakpoints" The application
continues without crashing.... however i not sure if Destroy
context/runtime is releasing the memory back. As the application starts
dying because of memory starvation.

Can someone point me to the likely causes for this.

I tried browsing the archives of this newsgroup.. and eliminated the
following potential causes :
o  i am not freeing the memory from GetStringBytes, instead it is
copied to a buffer
o I do not use JS_NewString...

Jaspreet
