Topics for This Week

  • bug 862602 has landed. This helps us reduce memory usage by unlocking images far away from the visible viewport so that they don't have to stay in memory. Watch out for regressions where images don't appear, or take too long to show up - please file bugs blocking bug 862602.
  • UI changes in new about:home (bug 917394). Now in Nightly, uplifting to Aurora soon.
