  • M8 bug 1244684 - FX_TAB_SWITCH_TOTAL_MS is broken
    • This got broken way back in 2013 by OMTC.
    • I've repaired the probe to actually be meaningful, and take OMTC into account. This has landed.
  • M9 bug 1246291 - [e10s] about:preferences#advanced - "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page" doesn't allow redirects
    • Fixed, uplifted.
  • M9 bug 1248599 - [e10s] The user is not automatically signed into the Firefox account after resetting the password
    • This got fixed by the Accounts team. \o/
  • Perf P1 bug 1195295 - content-sessionStore.js sends a sync message to the parent in SyncHandler.init
    • FINALLY landed this. smaug, mccr8 and ting helped huge, and we found some leaks along the way.
    • (The short story is that my patch fixed half of a leak, which caused many more things to be added to the cycle-collector graph, but those things were kept alive too long so the graph got larger and larger, and then on shutdown when analyzing the cc logs, we'd take too long and miss a native event, which would cause us to leak nsBaseAppShell.)
  • Perf P2 bug 1174770 - tpaint regressions (3%-33%) in e10s mode compared to non-e10s mode
    • Found that we're sending two sync IPC messages, one after the other, accounting for > 50% of the regression. Filed bug 1251032
    • We're also sending two sync IPC messages for IME. Filed bug 1251063
  • bug 666365 - Figure out what TabChild::SetVisibility needs to do
    • I have a needinfo on this, and it's taking me a while to sort this out. I _think_ we're doing the right thing by just having the TabChild be "visible" by default, but I haven't fully verified this yet.

  • bug 1232181 (M8, plugin window captures) - under review

gabor

  • bug 1179735 (p1 perf, - tp5o_scroll regression) - APZ causing the regression, and it causes other regressions as well. bug 1144120 has some fresh data about other regressions.
  • bug 1186585 (p1 perf - 28.2% - 48.5% tps talos regression with e10s enabled) - did some profiling, it seems like the compositor spends more time in RecvUpdateNoSwap, I wonder why does that take more time in e10s. The compositor should do the same work for tab switch in both case no? It is not (just) APZ I tested it.
  • bug 1248806 - (p1 crash - Recursive initialization of nsLayoutStatics when capability.policy.policynames is set) - this flag is used for various corporations for intranet and what not. Legacy stuff but it's important (Bobby tried to remove it once but had to put it back in the end for the high demand) I see a few solutions for the problem want to talk to Bobby or Boris about which one should I pick.

  • bug 1183915 - Landed drag and drop of images from Firefox to certain other applications.
  • bug 1095484 - WIP - Making links to extension-added custom protocol handlers work from content processes. Debugging some bugs in the patch.
  • More test fixes and work related to tests.

Chatted with :avih and :jmaher about talos tests and e10s (specifically concerned with tp5o_responsiveness). We now have a handle on why the number is so much better in e10s (it's measuring in the parent only) and :avih's tracking down someone who wants to be responsible for the test longer-term.

  • bug 1245309 - D3D11CreateDevice fails with E_FAIL in sandbox - mchang has reproduced this, but I can't on any of the three machines I have with an nvidia card. It's blocking bug 1246505 to let the low integrity sandbox ride the trains.
  • bug 1247959 - window.dump() does not work on Windows when sandboxed - bug 1173698 has been duped to this one. The same work around of redirecting stdout/err to a file seems to work.

  • Avi has been working to identify owners for the Talos test suites and their current status of e10s vs. non-e10s. Will be going through the results to work to identify owners of tests that need investigation.
  • Ongoing discussions about manual test coverage for e10s
