Team | Andrew McCreight (lead) |
Duration | TBD |
Goal | Implement incremental cycle collection to reduce1 cycle collector pauses in the Firefox UI.
1Reduction in cycle collector pauses will be measured with the CYCLE_COLLECTOR_FULL Telemetry probe. The degree of reduction that can be achieved is currently unclear. |

Profiler Backend for Mobile
Product impact | [MOBILE] [B2G] |

Team | Julian Seward (lead), Benoit Girard, Mike Hommey |
Duration | TBD |
Goal | Accurate1, crash-free, deadlock-free, low overhead2 stack unwinding for the SPS profiler for Firefox for Android and Firefox OS.
[1]The correct sequence of code return addresses on the stack, ideally without the unwind terminating before it gets back to main(). |
