Remeasuring 3.5 cold startup on WinXP is giving roller-coaster numbers, ups and downs in the >20% range between builds with changes that are seemingly innocuous. Focus this week is on figuring out how to get stable numbers there. | |||
At all ranges in the graph, the 3.5 WinXP cold startup numbers are all showing a regression in 3.6/3.7... again. I'll re-open that bug and work on figuring out a regression range. However, this is blocked on getting reliable numbers out of 3.5, see above. | |||
Highlights from the [http://autonome.wordpress.com/2009/10/17/firefox-startup-performance-weekly-summary-6/ weekly update post]: | |||
* Ben Hsieh’s work to improve fastload cache invalidation landed in {{bug|511761}}, with a 3% win on warm startup of WinXP. | |||
* Alfred Kayser landed {{bug|511754}}, which improves JAR file reading efficiency. | |||
* Rob Strong closed {{bug|521956}} and started some cleanup of nsUpdateService, further reducing the size of it for {{bug|311965}}. | |||
* Drew has a patch up for {{bug|506814}}, getting rid of ChangeGetPersistentDescriptor/SetPersistentDescriptor on Mac, needs review Josh. | |||
