It is always hard to advertise every change, but there are enough changes to post a brief summary.
What has changed: 1) :bgrins has added a new talos test 'damp' - devtools at maximum performance! This was done in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1150215 2) Talos doesn't run on OSX 10.6 anymore thanks to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=990490 3) Talos runs on OSX 10.10 on main branches and is slowly replacing OSX 10.8 out with uplifts on older branches. 4) A few android tests were turned off, now we run 3 of them- ones that are useful for tracking performance What changes are coming up: 1) We are planning on reducing the pages we test for android tests, this is mostly because the raw data is nearly identical to other pages. For reference, this would reduce tp4m in half and tsvgx by a few pages. This work will help us reduce over load as we transition from panda boards to real devices this summer. 2) compare-talos is being integrated into perfherder- This will be detailed in a blog post with examples of how to use it for investigating regressions and fixes. This work has been taking place in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1142680#c50 3) This quarter we will stop reporting to datazilla, this leaves graph server and perfherder (the performance view inside of treeherder). 4) talos counters will be reviewed and cleaned up this quarter as part of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1156907 5) we will start having compare-talos style views in bugs we file for performance regressions (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1150616). All feedback is welcome. With active work on new tools and deliverables to make things better, you can expect more changes. Of course, the more ideas and feedback we get, the better !! _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
