[BUG] Unable to open page with disabled setGraphicsMode

[heaven]

Once chromium.setGraphicsMode = false; open page times out.

Environment

• chromium Version: 123
• puppeteer / puppeteer-core Version: 22.6.1
• Node.js Version: 20.x
• Lambda / GCF Runtime: nodejs20.x

Expected Behavior

Chromium 112 worked well, disabling graphics mode effectively reducing the launch time by 25-30%.

Current Behavior

Opening a new page freezes forever.

const page = await browser.newPage();

Steps to Reproduce

  chromium.setGraphicsMode = false;

  const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
    args:              chromium.args,
    defaultViewport:   { width: 1366, height: 4608 },
    executablePath:    await chromium.executablePath(),
    headless:          chromium.headless,
    ignoreDefaultArgs: false,
    ignoreHTTPSErrors: true,
    pipe:              true,
    dumpio:            false
  });

  const page = await browser.newPage();

Once setGraphicsMode is commented out things get back to life again.

Interestingly, if setting chromium.setGraphicsMode = true; in 112.02, it then freezes 😀

So this setup only works with Node 18 and with graphics mode disabled:

{
  "dependencies": {
    "puppeteer-core": "^19.8.5"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@sparticuz/chromium": "^112.0.2"
  }
}

And this one works well on Node 20 with both graphics modes:

{
  "dependencies": {
    "puppeteer-core": "^22.4.1"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@sparticuz/chromium": "^122.0.0"
  }
}

For us, the graphics mode makes the crawler twice slower. Our script normally finishes in 7.5-8.5 seconds, with the graphics mode enabled it takes 15-18 seconds.

Until this bug gets fixed, I'm going to disable turning off accelerated graphics
