The members concern browsing with the real-profile setting while Chrome is running, where copying auth files (Login Data / Web Data) appears to retry SQLite busy errors without a bound. The related items describe bounding that backup, falling through to a raw copy, and cookies-only or fresh-browser fallbacks, though their outcomes are not stated.
