Agenda

  • status of patches in progress
  • performance requirements
  • next steps on performance and on memory leaks

Status of Pending CC Code in Bugzilla

Last week's next steps: Wait for patches (first 4 of 5) to land, then test more:

  • Jonas will write a test case to generate cycles via document. STATUS: Patch landed and there has been a significan improvement in performance. Now we're seeing a large majority of time spent in JS GC

Performance requirements

Criteria for Performance Satisfactory:

  • Double the current GC time.

Next steps on leaks

  • Two patches dbaron's review queue.
  • After the two patches, we need to have specific test cases and look for leaks.

Next steps on performance (pauses)

Next steps on performance (general degradation)
