Hi!

I've got a html test case which causes sth what looks like an infinite loop or at least a very long (too long) layout formatting.

Steps to reproduce:

virtualenv -p python3.7 weasyprint_env
source weasyprint_env/bin/activate
pip install git+https://github.com/Kozea/WeasyPrint#egg=WeasyPrint
python3.7 html2pdf_case1.py
# now it takes 100% of the CPU, so... ctrl+c

The html2pdf_case1.py file:

import io

from weasyprint import HTML

content = """<!doctype html>

Thanks @tomaszhlawiczka for reporting this issue.

(I’m somewhere between 🤣 and 😭)

Looks like each nested <span> greatly enlarges the effort to gets results. With limited number of descendants it works... so an algorithm issue?

The problem is in page_values that gets called way too many times. Adding a cache fixes the problem, but there’s probably a clean way to fix the algorithm.

OK, when a parent box has only one child, the function is called twice for this child, and 4 times for the grandchild, and… You get it?

Sure. Now it works perfectly - good job! Thanks a lot!
