Something happens and .net will no longer run

See original GitHub issue

I’m using the component like this…

await new BrowserFetcher().DownloadAsync(BrowserFetcher.DefaultRevision);

byte[] pdfBytes;

PuppeteerSharp.Browser browser = null;
Page page = null;

try
{
    browser = await Puppeteer.LaunchAsync(new LaunchOptions { Headless = true });

    page = await browser.NewPageAsync();

    await page.SetViewportAsync(new ViewPortOptions()
    {
        Height = 1000,
        Width = 1400
    });

    await page.GoToAsync("http://localhost:3000/export");

    await page.WaitForSelectorAsync("#btnDownload");

    pdfBytes = await page.PdfDataAsync(new PdfOptions
    {
        PrintBackground = true,
        Width = 1400.ToString() + "px",
        Height = 1000.ToString() + "px"
    });
}
finally
{
    if (!page?.IsClosed ?? false)
    {
        await page?.CloseAsync();
    }

    page?.Dispose();

    if (!browser?.IsClosed ?? false)
    {
        await browser?.CloseAsync();
    }

    browser?.Dispose();
}

Somewhat regularly, .net won’t start. Sometimes I get a lengthy error log. I think I saw on another forum that the web server service was clashing with PuppeteerSharp. I have to reboot my machine in order to get things back to normal.

I’m running on Mac OS.
