[IPython-dev] What causes the kernel to stay busy?

Python 2.7.8, iPython 2.2.0

I'm running on Mavericks 10.9.5, and I have one notebook running in Safari.

I'm parsing some html- not a lot of data.
Sometimes the notebook stops responding, even though it gives you the
illusion
that your python code was executed. (this is very misleading)

Your only clue is the tiny black circle in the upper right corner.
Once that shows up, game over. If I restart the kernel, all of the
variables loose their values. Interrupting the kernel doesn't help.

What is causing this and can it be fixed?
