All About Performance Taras' blog on Snappy, Startup, Telemetry and other Firefox peroformance matters

Notes are here. Time was spent on administrative issues like overlap/conflict between Snappy and Kilimanjaro, plans for security review for Vladan’s symbol server and bug triage.

I’m usually really bad at noticing UI lag, but now my mind is focused on tab switching and I notice the lag every time click on tabs (keyboard switching is unaffected). We discussed how to fix tab lag I blogged about earlier. It’s hard because there is some funny interaction between focus and drag & drop and us switching tabs on mousedown. Neil will look into addressing focus issues this week.

Tim is addressing thumbnail capture slowness in bugs: 744388, 742594, 726347.

Paolo is busy switching code away from synchronous places APIs: 728168, 728174, 728142 , 739213.

The networking team is expected to make a decision this week on how to fix the big networking cache lock. See Nick’s notes on options presented.

Thanks for feedback on preferred snappy update format: we’ll stick with cherries.
