Better Performance Metrics - anode, ?

• Worked with jmaher to land E10S talos stuff.
• Alterations to Talos to make it work with new features around XUL permissions
• Cycle Collector test has stalled out waiting on dev's for the hooks we need; need to follow up with them.
  • We can now force a cycle collection
  • But we still need to disable auto-memory collection so that we know what state we're in after forcing a cycle collection
• Addons performance testing - Wil has a meeting between Alice, Harth, Nick & Wil to figure out how they want addons perf testing to take place in the future and how they want reporting to happen.

Firebug Test framework - ahal

• Won't get this integrated before I leave (last day Friday)
• Will need to set this up on anode's staging environment to see how it works
  • In preparation for this, made it into a pypi package (runFBTests), so should be very straight forward to setup
  • Still some minor features I might add this week
