* Last week we proposed a [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Platform/2009-Q4-Goals set of goals] for Q4. I've received some great feedback, and there will be changes. | |||
* We're going to be changing/removing a few goals in order for us to focus on crashes on a massive scale. Friday evening, we formed a small team to kill [http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/query/query?product=Firefox&version=Firefox%3A3.5.3&platform=windows&date=&range_value=1&range_unit=weeks&query_search=signature&query_type=exact&query=&do_query=1 top crashers]. Over the next several weeks we plan to dramatically reduce those crashes. | |||
* Speaking of crashes, last week the CoolIris team released an update to their plug-in that triggered a spike in crashes in the plug-in, resulting in their plug-in being the top crasher in Firefox 3 and 3.5. They worked over the weekend, along with guys on our team who helped identify the issue, to back out the changes. | |||
* It's spikes like the above that demonstrate the importance of completing [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Plugins/Multi-Process_Plugin_Architecture out of process plug-ins]. Last Friday, I saw a demo--and I hope we see a blog post/video demo soon--of flash running out of process in our browser, where killing the process running flash left the browser running fine. Maybe Ben Turner can share that with the world soon? ;) | |||
