Firefox Development

(dolske subbing for gavin this week)

Firefox Developer Tools

  • landed the protocol update patch bug 729576
  • finished the stepping support bug 711164
  • Page Inspector has pseudo-class support
  • Ask Steve Fink and B Hackett about differences between their two profilers
  • Style Editor and 3D view shipping with Firefox 11!!!!111eleven

Add-on SDK

Performance

  • Telemetry data should be back online by this Friday.
  • Here's this week's Snappy summary.
  • Andrew's landed a fix for the purple buffer in bug 728460 that should result in the cycle collector running less often.
  • Rafael fixed a shutdown problem in bug 732368.
  • Mark changed Peptest to be more like Talos. Measurement trends should be watched instead of individual test run results.
  • Content team is working on reducing lag caused by background tabs.
  • Vlad is almost done with bug 722368, which will give us full coverage of SQL activity within Firefox and is aiming to wrap up cancelable SQL queries next week, bug 722243.
  • Vlad is also almost done with the python symbol server for bug 712109, which will assist with non destructive chromehang.
  • Cleanup and async work for pointless-stat()-reducing bug 521264, favicon consumers in bug 728143 (on the way toward async places - thanks Paolo) and content prefs in bug 699859 (thanks Drew).
  • Nick is still working on making cache async in bug 723577.

GFX

  • Maple is going to land on mozilla-central very soon, probably tomorrow. (i.e., after the migration.)
    • What this means to you:
      • Native Android Firefox nightlies will probably be more checkerboardy and janky. We're working on it.

JS

  • We are pref'ing off IGC by default
    • Why: When IGC runs all the time (i.e., bug 728686 is fixed), Tinderbox shows memory leaks in random tests (i.e., different tests with each run)
    • We don't even know whether they are true leaks or an artifact of the tests
    • Any help anyone can give (on debugging leaks, understanding Tinderbox, etc) will be much appreciated!
