Orphaned Developer Tools Process using 100% CPU

Reported by richardk...@gmail.com, Oct 20 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/54.0.2840.59 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Don't know

What is the expected behavior?
Developer Tools should exit when its tab is closed.

What went wrong?
There is a Developer Tools process running, but the tab it was associated with has been closed. It uses 100% CPU and cannot be closed without exiting chrome.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 54.0.2840.59  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.12.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0

Labels: Needs-Feedback
I can't reproduce this on tip-of-tree. Could you please provide additional information?

- can you reproduce this reliably?
- does this also happen on a canary?
- does this happen when inspecting a particular URL?
- are there any other actions within the DevTools or page involved?

- No, I only noticed it because of the sound of my fan so I have no idea exactly when or how it happened.
- Not sure.
- Hard to say, because it only happened once.
- Don't know.

Sorry that's not helpful at all. If this happens again, is there any way to get information about a DevTools process without having access to the tab it's connected to?

Let's close this for now, since it's not actionable in its current form -- but please feel free to re-open if this happens again.

Generally, you can troubleshoot devtools front-end by invoking devtools-on-devtools, but considering it's apparently in and endless loop, I'm not sure this will work -- so perhaps the only option would be attaching a native debugger.
