safariweb-inspector
I'm using Safari 10.0.1 on Sierra 10.12.1.
At some point, usually after ~5 minutes or about 100 requests, the web inspector stops logging network requests under the Network tab.
Same thing happens with the Timelines tab.
I've had this problem since Safari 9 on El Cap.
Any pointers on how to solve this?
I have just fixed precisely the same problem on a site. Its annoying when a debugger chokes so it can't help you find the problem!
My problem was caused by a stray class making its way into a style.
<div style="background: #ffb380; padding-bottom:30px; width:300px; text-center;">
Removing the text-center fixed the problem and web-inspector loads correctly. I would expect you also have an error in the page that is causing web-inspector to choke. Two approaches I can recommend:
Found it - a bit hidden its at the bottom of preferences - advanced, i.e.
"Show Develop menu in menu bar"
