Here's a snippet of Document::prepareForDestruction
void Document::prepareForDestruction()
{
if (m_hasPreparedForDestruction)
return;
...
detachFromFrame();
m_hasPreparedForDestruction = true;
}
Document::prepareForDestruction is called on the assumption that the document will not be used again with its frame. However, if a frame caching is made in Document::prepareForDestruction, the document's frame will be stored in a CachedFrame object that will reattach the frame at some point, and thereafter, the document's frame will be never detached due to |m_hasPreparedForDestruction|.
