Project Updates

SessionStore

(Steven and I are unfortunately unable to attend the meeting today. Feel free to read this out loud or just read it on your own :)

• SessionStore is affected by a possible data loss due to ChromeWorkers being aborted on shutdown, patches under way to fix this (bug 913899).
• The recent session cookie refactorings introduced a regression for huge sessions with lots of (nested) history entries, patches waiting for review (bug 912717).
• Telemetry for TabStateCache landed (bug 896545) and shows that our cache hit rates are great.
• We're working on tests for the TabStateCache (bug 911115).
• Global Value API has been backed out to fix regressions before landing again (bug 899213).
• With nsIAppStartup.willRestart and .wasRestarted in the making (bug 911146) we will be able to get rid of some more ugly code (bug 914062).
• Missing tests are the last thing blocking us from landing the first async data collection patches (bug 894595).

Stand ups
