+* TART performance
+** We're bisecting UX like crazy. It's a little tricky because there seems to be some noise in the measurements as we go, and we're a little wary that the total regression is the sum of many small ones...but there is at least one changeset range where there's been a pretty substantial regression, and we're peeling into that.
+** MattN has noted that, at least locally, SVG clip-paths are pretty expensive on his XP machine, and removing them saw a [http://compare-talos.mattn.ca/breakdown.html?oldTestIds=130&newTestIds=132&testName=tart&osName=MattN-WinXP&server=graphs.mattn.ca 12% performance improvement] compared to having the clip-paths. We're going to pursue Graphics on the possibility of caching clip-paths.
+** Vladan has found a solution to our XP pseudostack problem - one simply needs to copy a more recent version of dbghelp.dll (he tested with DLL version 6.12.2.633) into the firefox directory. Once we've confirmed on a few other machines, we'll update MDN (and possibly pursue getting that DLL put on all of the talos slaves)
