When DevTools are open in Safari, the database query hangs forever

[eeeedgar]

When the Safari DevTools are open, a database query hangs indefinitely.
Closing the DevTools in Safari (or using any other browser) makes the query run as expected.

Environment

• Safari version: 18.3
• Flutter web with Drift (2.24.0)
• Problem is reproducible only in Safari with open DevTools.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a Flutter web app that uses Drift for local database access.
2. Implement a simple query, for example:

Future<List<DataObject>> getData() async {
    return await database.select(table).get();
}

3. Build and run this Flutter web app locally or deploy it somewhere accessible.
4. Open the app in Safari (version 18.3 tested).
5. Open the Safari DevTools (e.g., via Develop > Show Web Inspector).
6. Refresh the page so that the query runs once again on load.

This method is executed in the Data Access Layer once when the page is refreshed.

Additional Notes

• No errors or warnings appear in the console when the query hangs.
• Other browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge) do not exhibit this behavior, even with their DevTools open.
• The issue arises consistently on every page refresh when Safari DevTools is open.

Anything glaring in the browser console?

Thanks for the report! Was the associated drift worker also from the 2.24.0 release?

@simolus3 yes

Can you reproduce this with new drift project? I tried reproducing this with the examples/web_worker_example/ project in this repository, but the query stream keeps working with the console open in Safari.
