Understanding the code

First, read the jsDoc of WatchedComponentPersistent, Frame and RenderRun about their lifecycle / relation.

Polling

poll works at first identical to load, until after the first result is loaded. When the frame becomes "alive" (see frame#startListeningForChanges), it schedules the re-polls then. The RecordedLoadCall#result.state is not set to "pending" during re-poll.
