Every time a developer &#8220;checks in&#8221; a change to Firefox, a fleet of<br \/>\nmachines runs the browser through a battery of tests to measure performance.<\/p>\n<p>These tests range from startup\/shutdown performance, the time it takes to<br \/>\nload a web page, and browser benchmark suites like WebKit&#8217;s SunSpider,<br \/>\nMozilla&#8217;s Kraken, and Google&#8217;s V8 Benchmark.<\/p>\n<p>Perf-O-Matic 2.0 features a new, streamlined interface, designed by Chris Howse.<\/p>\n<p>This is the dashboard, which allows for a quick overview of popular tests.<\/p>\n<p>Clicking on any graph in the dashboard brings us to the<br \/>\n&#8220;Custom Chart&#8221; screen. The graph is interactive &#8211; hover over any point<br \/>\nto get a tooltip with more information about this test result. Every<br \/>\ntest result will have an associate changeset id in mercurial,<br \/>\nwhich links to more information about what changes the developer made.<\/p>\n<p>The toolbar of the &#8220;Custom Chart&#8221; screen allows us to select date range,<br \/>\ndata type (running time, time delta, time delta %), zoom in and out,<br \/>\nand you can even show all changesets for a highlighted range.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;Link&#8221; button gives a quick link to the chart you&#8217;re looking at.<br \/>\n&#8220;Embed&#8221; gives you some HTML code you can use if you want to display<br \/>\ninteractive graphs on your own site. I&#8217;ll give a quick demo of this.<br \/>\nHere&#8217;s an embedded, interactive chart; this is inspired by <a href=\"http:\/\/arewefastyet.com\">arewefastyet.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>On the left, we have information about the currently loaded<br \/>\ndata series &#8211; SunSpider benchmark for Firefox on Windows 5.1. Each point on<br \/>\nthe graph is actually an average of several test machine runs, so we can<br \/>\n&#8220;explode&#8221; the data series to see the raw, individual data. Clicking again<br \/>\nwill &#8220;implode&#8221; the data, showing us the more human-readable average.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, more test data can be added, for making direct visual comparisons<br \/>\nbetween multiple data series. You can multi-select here, to get multiple data series at once.<\/p>\n<p>This project builds on the work of many others, including (but not limited to):<br \/>\nvlad<br \/>\nrdoherty<br \/>\nanode<br \/>\nianbicking<br \/>\nmany, many others on the graphserver side<\/p>\n<p>We also received valuable early design review and feedback from jonath, rsayre, eshan, and many others.<\/p>\n<p>Perf-O-Matic uses many existing open-source projects, such as python, flot, and node.js<\/p>\n<p>Perf-O-Matic 2.0 is being staged for testing.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;ve got a handful of known bugs, and we need your help to find the rest.<\/p>\n<p>Please try it out at:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/graphs-stage2.mozilla.org\">http:\/\/graphs-stage2.mozilla.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can find more information on the Perf-O-Matic UI wiki page, including links to mercurial and github:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.mozilla.org\/Perfomatic:UI\">https:\/\/wiki.mozilla.org\/Perfomatic:UI<\/a><!--more--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s a quick transcript of the video:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":251,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[510,288],"tags":[],"coauthors":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
