Method pollGecko

src/js/core/Load.js:275–302

Begins polling to determine when the specified stylesheet has finished loading in Gecko. Polling stops when all pending stylesheets have loaded or after 10 seconds (to prevent stalls). Thanks to Zach Leatherman for calling my attention to the @import-based cross-domain technique use
