We did a bunch of [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Platform/2014-Q1-Goals#DOM cool] stuff this quarter, the notable things that we didn't quite get done are:
* ICC *almost* enabled. Ran into an existing intermittent leak that got more frequent, i.e. we have a better chance of fixing it now!
* Window *almost* converted to WebIDL. We've seen this green on try, but ran into more stuff when merging etc. Really close, would've likely been done now if it wasn't for some unplanned downtime in the team.
* <picture> element up n' running, but not quite there yet.

Perf team Q2 goals: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Platform/2014-Q2-Goals#Perf
Vladan on PTO April 2-18, Avi Halachmi (:avih) substituting
<b>Asus Transfomer T100 laptop/tablet initiative</b>:
* Focus on providing the best user experience (UX feel, features, performance) on lowest common denominator hardware
** Try to become the best browser on this specific hardware
** Firefox will be even better on higher spec stuff
* Our test machines should be different from our development machines (similar to Android development)
* Procure it as needed for your projects: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA2NR1AU2763
* Why this particular device:
** Popular: according to Amazon.com, it's been one of top sellers in the "Laptop Computers" category for months
** Both tablet & laptop formats
** Cheap + low-end (Atom CPU, integrated graphics, SSD+HDD)
Profiler enhancements:
* {{bug|963158}}: Profiler shouldn't sample sleeping threads multiple times
* {{bug|987297}}: Improve memory usage of profiler by packing ProfileEntry structs together better
* {{bug|962262}}: Use external structure padding to save ~30% of circular buffer space
* {{bug|986160}}: Create unit tests for the Gecko Profiler
* {{bug|967619}}: Talos Profiling has hit some snags, likely Talos profiling on Windows will not be initially supported
* {{bug|758697}}: Working on improving profiler support for B2G
Most common sources of main-thread I/O, according to Telemetry:
* {{bug|987735}}: {xre}\dictionaries
* {{bug|987715}}: {xre}\browser\searchplugins\* - filed
* {{bug|988294}}: {profile}\cookies.sqlite
* {{bug|987738}}: {profile}\cert_override.txt
* {{bug|987728}}: {profile}\localstore.rdf
* {{bug|987745}}: formhistory.sqlite
* {{bug|988304}}: {profile}\blocklist.xml
* {{bug|975996}}: permissions.sqlite
* {{bug|988301}}: Firefox Sync
* {{bug|988292}}: {profile}\addons.json
* [https://issues.adblockplus.org/ticket/217 Adblock Plus patterns.ini]
Miscellaneous fixes:
* {{bug|987101}}: Switch the CrashMonitor to native OS.File.read() for better performance
* {{bug|989326}}: Loader.jsm should neither flush nor perform main thread I/O
