  • Loading the Mozilla & Django worlds into my head

lars

  • researched a production Socorro 1.6.3 problem
    • processor goes rogue with "Error 24 - too many open files"
    • error makes no sense as every file opening is protected with try/finally
    • opted not to fix because of pending 1.7 release that eliminates files
  • pushed out Socorro 1.7
    • pushed extensive changes that replaced NFS storage with HBase
    • watched helplessly as HBase/Hadoop issues embarrassed the project
  • simultaneously with the 1.7 push, Socorro was accused of under/over reporting FF 3.6.4 crashes in a 6-7 surge
    • hours & hours & hours trying to defend Socorro
    • studied code until I was dizzy
    • studied it again until I was comatose
  • pushing hard on Socorro 1.8
    • 1st working map/reduce processor daemon last night
    • now combing the code for efficiency
    • wondering why duck typing doesn't work with the json module
  • favorite animated movie: The Triplets of Belleville

laura

  • Shipped Socorro 1.7
  • Investigated and resolved Firefox 3.6.4 apparent crash spike (this took most of the last two weeks)
    • Summary: git locks on config files are evil.
    • When collectors were set to throttle 100% of 3.6.4 crashes, config change only synced to 1/3. The other two throttled 3.6.4 at 15%.
    • When change finally reached other two (on next config change on 6/7), saw apparent spike.
    • Checked everything from code, infra, malware, sunspots...
  • About to ship Socorro 1.7.1 (fix representation of hangs)
  • Saw a bunch of HBase stability issues, mostly resolved.
  • Submitted a breakout session to the Summit about the Socorro PRD
  • PostCrash appears to be on for Q3
  • Cartoon: Smurfs and the Magic Flute. I lined up for two hours to see it when I was five. If we broaden it to animation then Coraline.
