Fixes: | |||
* {{bug|760356}}: Only show the add-on compatibility UI during startup when actually necessary | |||
* {{bug|988304}}: Avoid main-thread IO for {profile}\blocklist.xml | |||
* {{bug|989393}}: Remove old closed tabs and windows from sessionstore.js to make reads/writes of the file faster & to speed up session-restore time | |||
* {{bug|917883}}: Use AsyncShutdown instead of spinning the event loop in FHR | |||
Telemetry: | |||
* Analyzed Telemetry data in response to user reports of Firefox 29 not shutting down properly. Found that Flash 13.x is five times more common in Firefox sessions preceded by "profile locked" than normal Firefox startups | |||
* Prototype of Telemetry dashboard for showing the evolution of a histogram across channels & Firefox versions: http://raluca-elena.github.io/telemetry-dashboard/ | |||
* Prototype of live dashboard for top chromehangs: http://people.mozilla.org/~mreid/telemetry/chromehangs/ | |||
Miscellaneous: | |||
* {{bug|1016089}}: The TART Talos test can be run as an extension on the developer desktop, and now the extension can capture performance profiles during the test. Handy for debugging regressions, especially in combination with the [http://compare-talos.mattn.ca/ compare-talos tool]. Latest version of TART always available here: https://hg.mozilla.org/build/talos/raw-file/tip/talos/page_load_test/tart/generate-xpi.html | |||
