Done:

Got sync launch patch and compiled-code test working on Linux, started review cycle. Fixed review comments and unbitrotted webprogress patch. Confirmed that a patch for a different bug fixed crashreporter crash.

Next:

Fix issues with sync launch on other platforms (some tryserver failures, haven't investigated yet). Address review comments for sync launch. Get another review for webprogress patch, and figure out future approach (does it need child-side filtering, etc). Look for reviewers for startup cache client code. Work with mwu on cache invalidation / statting extension stuff.

Coordination:

dwitte says he will have startupcache review done soon, says no major issues for first patch.

Done:

  • landed Layers logging, low-level support for cross-process, fast OGL thebes layer for X11/EGL (i.e. n900)
  • nuked platform widgets from dom/ipc
  • implemented "fake widget" backend, PuppetWidget, for content processes
  • <browser remote> drawing with cross-process layers

Next:

  • find sucker^Wassignee for widgetless focus/key event/IME

Coordination:

Wanted to take dewidgetification for fennec 2.0a1 (v. m.d.t.dom thread), but with more thought, seems like a too-big risk. Implies remote frame stuff will probably need its own temp branch or twig.

bzbarsky

Done:

  • Various reviews
  • More profiling; lots of staring at assembly in shark and cursing of finite-size L2 caches.

Next:

  • More reviews, try to get more performance fixes in.
  • Try to investigate some sort of short-term mitigation for the Invalidate() performance issues during reflow.

Coordination:

  • Laptop mostly died earlier today; have no access to about half my patch queues (including the things I was working on most recently). The claim is that I should get it back in "3-5 days". I suppose I'll focus even more on reviews until that happens.

Done:

Working on bugs/enhancement requests on the topfails website.

Tried [ unsuccessfully ] to create a backPort tracking application for changeset landings. The idea is to ask for a release branch and check if all the relevant landings on the branch are ported appropriately to all the current & active named-branches. Unfortunately, the logic of deciphering what are current active named branches on a given release is not trivial.

Next:

May 21st is my last working day with Mozilla.

Coordination:

Working on winding down and hand-off of the tools/scripts I develop/maintain to A-Team.
