Agenda

  • Desperately need live data sets for the dashboard, what's the ETA on that?
  • Taking the information public - as we make the wins, we should announce them. This is going to be a series of little wins over a long course of work. What's the best way? Blogs + newsgroup posts?
  • Review the Action Items & Bugs

Action items from last time

  • bug 670229 - follow up for individual tests that are slow - jgriffin
  • bug 673198 - follow up on tracemalloc question - ted
  • Any p2 bugs need to escalate?

Review [buildfaster:p1] bugs

Review current activities

  • wlach has been digging into slow XPCShell tests (bug 617503)
    • It seems as if there's a disk i/o issue which is making places and addon related xpcshell tests really slow on our build slaves. Anything we can do about this?
    • Geolocation test also seems to be somewhat broken (incorrectly tries to connect to google, hanging the test without respecting timeout). bug 674738. Do we need to poke someone about this?
    • Should probably file bug about the nsIProcess test forking 1000 times. Is this really necessary?

Review [buildfaster:?] bugs

Questions

From last time:

  • run 10.5 debug builds on 10.6 machines? It increases capacity of 10.6 pool. Low low priority. Loosely related.
  • shall we break up the current activities section into bug being worked on and bugs in the back burner?

Actions for next time
