Action Items
- AI:alice
complete Stand Alone talos doc- includes landing proxy server patch somewhere bug 389703
- StandaloneTalos
- AI:schrep talk to linux vendors about native theme painting performance
- Coop changed talos to accommodate, so now doing performance test runs again.
- AI: vlad Investigate pageloader component numbers on 1.8 -- bug 396628
- vlad unable to reproduce; vlad and alice to meet.
- AI: ben/justin
Make images of clean talos slave; easier future setup(how many machines need to be ordered?), bring up new machines bug 398584- Machines are ready to be imaged bug 398427
- Stock up on minis?
-
AI:justin Write up goals, need to decided on remaining perf goal.
Infrastructure
- bhearsum is going to be working primarily in Build for the next 1-2 months.
- Will still be supporting the existing Talos machines
- Working on Try server Talos, Vista slaves, baselines is on the back burner for now.
- Mac Tp numbers seem extremely high, especially on trunk
- Discussion over Talos/Tbox stability
- Much more stable - planned to add the tests to the production tree in 1 month (11/3)
- blocked on bug 393338
- Talos status update? http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/MozillaTest/
- Tdhtml/Tgfx/Tsvg for Talos landed (Txul will land very soon, too)
- What slaves do we want these tests running?
- Page-load-server component question - see vlad's AI.
- Tdhtml/Tgfx/Tsvg for Talos landed (Txul will land very soon, too)
- Talos for Mozilla2
- Ben to create a mini for imaging, IT will image and get Ben talos server. Robcee/alice to help with the integration to master. bug 398584
- Machines ready to be imaged bug 398427
- Ben to create a mini for imaging, IT will image and get Ben talos server. Robcee/alice to help with the integration to master. bug 398584
- Talos on the try server bug 398192
- The Buildbot side is moving quickly, I've already run a couple of test slaves.
- Managing/interpreting the data will take longer to figure out.
- Leak/Mochi tests on debug builds
- tracking bugs: bug 397724, bug 374822, bug 397725
- Talk about the happenings on the tree wrt bug 400045
- Ben/Robcee to look at numbers
- Goals for q4
- Agreed goals:
- stable production talos for branch trunk (4 platforms) on tree
- perf enabled try server
- stand alone talos box
- baselines for historical numbers
- graph server improvements (perhaps seneca)
- investigate (rock) performance solutions for mobile
- Bring up new tinderboxen to run leak and mochi tests on debug builds.
- Agreed goals:
Gecko: Perf discussion
- dtrace status
- luser reviewing main patch for Solaris
- Followups
- sessionStore is really slow, needs to be fixed (needs owner (dietrich/simon) -- bug 398807)
- cycle collection and talos, esp. with destroy patch (jonas)
- need to force cycle collection in between page load? (api bug 399927)
- concerns about not measuring real-world performance
- figure out how to measure cc impact on real-world as opposed to artificial (talos) navigation
- need to force cycle collection in between page load? (api bug 399927)
- On radar
- Theme optimization (unowned)
- roc's scrollbar issues
- startup performance (fastload perf, loading libXUL and other files, etc.) (unowned)
- dtrace -G on mac support
- can do more work to speed up onSecurityChange, but further work will require SSL work and reducing the number of notifications
- others?
