• Found a way to trigger bailout manually: adding `debugger` in the client code; need to find a solution to add in parsed code for GDocs
• Sent the bailout build to QA. They will measure the impact for me.

thinker

• I have found content of script tags would be run before following content of the document arrive. It means CSS and other resources would not be handled for blocking by a long run script in a script tag. Interruptible script runner maybe helpful.

This Week Priorities

kanru

• Structured Clone (reduce OOM)
• Crash components
• MOZ_MUST_USE
• JS stack in crash report

thinker

• Network, focus on load resource earlier
• Improve task tracer (scriptable interface)
• idea: randomly insert guard pages

cervantes

• Study heap memory in minidump, experiment with previous crashes
• idea: guard pages for jemalloc arena
• e10s media crash, possibley gmp related

wcpan

• More MOZ_MUST_USE
• Fix Coverity discovered bugs

ting

• Fragmentation. Experiment on previous crash to see the virtual memory layout
• RelaseData() crash

gweng

• JavaScript GC slowness on GDoc
• Wait bailout result from QA

Incoming

• Sep: Many team members plan to take PTOs for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
