Accessibility (dbolter)

App Tools (prouget)

B2G Services (dougt)

Cloud Services (mmayo)

Developer Tools (robcee)

Profiler Update

Last week, Victor Porof (:vp) attempted to land the New Profiler UI in bug 879008. He had to back it out due to leaks occurring in the Profiler back-end. We logged bug 1047124 to investigate this and some quick discussion with Benoit Girard suggested there was a leak.

We're going to land the new Profiler front-end with the 15 or so tests that cause this leak disabled.

A little further investigation showed the tests from our original in-tree Profiler were disabled back in February bug 973974 and never re-enabled.

We're going to talk to Kannan Vijayan this week to ask if he has any chance to look into this. He's been fixing Profiler crashes for nearly 6 months and rewriting the JS backend of the profiler in his spare time. Hopeful we'll be able to get these tests working again as we've been running blind since they were disabled.

Any additional help or insight please contact me (robcee) or Victor (victorporof) in email or IRC.
