Stability
Nightly
awsy rate: 2.43 (browser: 1.53, content: 0.9)
[marcia]
- MS crash is #2 in current 56 data: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1361132. They have a crash dump from a user and are investigating.
- Ting filed a bunch of bugs on the 6-11 nightly: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Platform/Uptime/NightlyCrashTriage/2017Q2#2017-06-14_-_ting
Beta
awsy rate: 0.74 (browser: 0.52, content: 0.22)
[philipp] 55.0b1
- attention when looking at crash-stats: crashes from devedition are still showing up as version 55.0 (not 55.0b1) due to bug 1368632
- search link for all 55.0b1 beta/devedition browser crashes: http://bit.ly/2sCxMSw, content crashes: http://bit.ly/2s4lZLB
- share of startup crashes is currently 9% - in line with what we had early in prior cycles
issues cropping up in early data:
- (Assigned, with patch) Crash in js::TraceLoggerEvent::TraceLoggerEvent: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1363301 - 4.1% of browser crashes
- triggered when enabling/disabling an extension after the next start after the install
- Startup crash in mozilla::places::Database::ForceCrashAndReplaceDatabase: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1356812
- artificial crash we introduced in 55 & uplifted to 54/esr to clear a corrupted places.sqlite db - when that fails, some (few) users might be trapped with repeated startup crashes...
- Crashes in intel graphics drivers: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1359416
- not enough data yet to be sure that this will become an issue again, but i think we should prepare to flip the preference that solved this crash pattern last cycle
- Crashes with Firebug addon: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1373220 - only common in devedition, but 10% of browser crashes there
Release
awsy rate: 0.74 (browser: 0.55, content: 0.19)
[marcia]
- Early - data still coming in - explosiveness report quiet: https://crash-analysis.mozilla.com/release-mgmt/2017-06-14/2017-06-14.firefox.release.explosiveness.html
- Mac users are still suffering from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1367702 - most of the comments mention plugging and unplugging headphones.
- [marcia] We should look at other comments in Socorro that mention the same thing, I think there are other bugs
Mobile
awsy rate: release 0.66, beta 0.80, nightly 1.61
[marcia}
- Both release and Nightly looks good so far
- Filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1373254 for a Sync issue. Need to figure out who to add
- Top crash on Nightly is reproducible: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1372060
Performance (Thu)
Aurora / Dev Edition
Beta
Release
Add-ons
request expanding multi to webextensions later in 54 (after throttle to 100% and initial multi + no add-ons data comes in). Benefit: Multi + webextension is a 57 requirement and earlier release de-risks 57 + Multi to broader audience. Issue: we have seen 1 more content crash per 25,000 hours than Multi with no add-ons. Stability wise believe that is minor change https://sql.telemetry.mozilla.org/queries/4355#8685 the crash is 25% from EnqueuePromiseReactionJob. Fixes that landed in Beta 54 don't seem to have impacted, more are riding with 55. asking for data on that in nightly
to do: email release drivers and gerry chang (54 release owner)

- marcia will reach out to Joe Cheng regarding this
- Meta Bug https://bugzil.la/1349309 - Sebastian is asking for triage in many of them so I guess they are not sure yet.
