Add-ons

Stability

Aurora

  • Overall rate: 2.5 - browser: 1.5, content: 1.0 - red, slightly lower than last week
    • largest crashes are with a11y+e10s, we need to make sure to exclude that audience from beta experiments (a patch for that is in bug 1226487)
    • patches also coming to not activate e10s on dev edition when a11y has been activated recently (bug 1198459)
  • bug 1219529 is >1% of overall crashes, has a patch verified on nightly and an uplift request
  • bug 1218032 (nsContentIterator::NextNode) is still very visible in stats, but not happening with builds of Nov 18 or newer due to backout in bug 1224101

Beta

  • Overall rate: 1.1 - yellow, similar to last week
  • bug 1226400 (dom::FontFaceSet::Load) is 2% of 43.0b5 data and #2 Top Crash Score - this is happening across channels, platforms and even Android.
  • bug 1222933 (mostly Ad Muncher) is 1.5% and #1 Top Crash Score
  • bug 1222819 (Orbit Downloader) is #3 Top Crash Score
  • bug 1227221 (Flash beta 20 hangs) has been causing the Flash hang rate on beta to roughly double, Adobe says they found the issue are are releasing a newer beta today - we'll watch data as they plan to ship Flash 20 very soon.

Release

  • Overall rate: 0.9 - green
  • bug 1222933 (mostly Ad Muncher) is #1 Top Crash Score
  • bug 1226400 (dom::FontFaceSet::Load) is 1% of 42.0 data (and rising)
  • bug 1224549 (Java plugin hangs) increased the overall count of plugin hangs on release by ~25% and pushes Java users to use older, insecure Firefox versions
  • bug 1221448 (Java plugin crash) is still a significant portion of plugin crashes overall and makes lives suck for Java users, but is fixed in the very newest Java 8 build, according to both Oracle and our crash data. (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1221448#c32)
