Just to follow up on this - yesterday the metrics Elastic Search cluster
experienced some data loss, with OrangeFactor being amongst the services
affected.
It's not yet clear if there is a backup available [1][2], so for now the
stats shown on http://brasstacks.mozilla.com/orangefactor/ are missing
the last 3 months worth of submissions - causing the OrangeFactor (see
Clint's email below) for the last 7 days to display as 2-3, rather than
the 10 it was at previously.
Whilst the sudden reduction in failure rate is primarily an artefact of
the data-loss, in the last week we have also seen an extremely positive
response from devs in many intermittent-failure bugs -- RyanVM and
myself would like to thank everyone who has chipped in so far! :-)
Kind regards,
Ed

We track this through a metric called the Orange Factor which is simply
the average number of intermittent failures encountered on each push.
This means, right now when you push, on *average* you are getting 8
failures.
