Followups

• opening mozilla-central for general checkins is tracking bug 422754

  • bhearsum working on codesize test… some assumptions have changed
  • performance regression was a fluke… a clobber fixed it 🙁
• Consolidated post-1.9 planning wiki pages are pending. Damons is merging the work week spreadsheets into a single location tbd.

Discussion Topics

Actionmonkey performance measurements and MMgc fixup: status and plan of attack.

• tune GC-from-alloc
• per-thread freelists
• mochitest crash

Getting jimb unstuck on TC-MMGC to work on other things…

Purpose of this meeting (general, or just tamarin, MMgc, code rewriting, etc.)
