bug 549749 [Startup-optimized binary layout]: Got a valgrind plugin that outputs a linker script that results in a 10% faster binary(but only 10%, should do better). Unfortunately, the binary is still accessed in an unhelpful manner, wrote a libelf tool to convert io-traces include symbols within the io ranges. Need to study linkers more :(. This has taken up most of my time since last update.
Bug 516085 [efficient/easy replacement for most getService calls]: Cleaned up patch according to review comments. Going to go through another tryserver+review cycle
bug 533038 [Extensions kill startup perf] Measured/studied/argued extension effect on ff startup
Next:
Need closure on bugs 512584 and 516085, going to wrap those up. Going to spend some time with jimb to plug remaining gaps in my understanding on how our binaries get loaded for bug 549749.
Need to develop a plan for dealing with extension startup(bug 533038). Seems that the best thing to do is to debug and document what the current extensions are doing wrong and go from there.

Looked at the regression ranges [ Regbugfixes/(Genbugfixes+Regbug_fixes) ] by component and by top 10 files [ by total bug fixes ] in each component and by overall top ten files [ by total bug fixes ] to identify any SPC spread exceptions.
Identified a bunch of source files that are part of 1.9.1 and no longer exist in trunk. What would have happened to the corresponding tests. Are they refactored ? retired or running as usual. If they are running as usual, then are they still testing what they are supposed to test ? In order to answer this question, I need to generate test case to source file mapping which would be many to many using modified code coverage test run scripts.
Next:
Design a test routine that executes tests one by one and collects test case to source file mapping.

Followed up with jwalker/bespin... was asked to wait until Q2, when the code will be in a better state -- current idea is to have pluggable views (in MVC sense). Some hacking on our caret orange. Some patch prep for landing.

Bug 499904 - after exploring adding DBus handling directly into Fennec as part of the phone support component, I'm instead writing a small proxy utility that will intercept Maemo browser requests and use them to launch Fennec. This relies on bug 529576 to land to have proper "open in new tab" behavior

Done:
- Just finished helping to track down and kill what is hopefully the last ARM bug merged from Tracemonkey (bug 518227).
Next:
- Bug 506926 - fixing broken Fennec reftests on WinCE
- Faster fast-startup component (need to do remote start checking/comm before XUL setup is done, if possible)
- Need to be able to inhibit pop-up windows for FastStartup to work cleanly. In other words, if the user isn't interacting with the browser, it shouldn't be trying to interact with them. Best current example of this is bug 516794 (the part where we complain at startup)
- jsfunfuzz on WinCE
