As a mean value, and for the date in question, yes. If a particular prefix
list of stack frames is responsible for one 20 second hang for one in 10
users every 5 hours (pretending all users use Nightly for the same number
of hours per day), you'll see a value of 20,000 / 10 / 5  == 400ms/h.

That's a good suggestion. I'll work on getting units in there.

Build ID.

If I'm understanding your question correctly I believe that's a privacy
issue. Maybe if we end up going with RAPPOR we'll be able to see some
aggregate stats on hanginess of particular domains though. Or we could
prompt Nightly users to opt into sending more sensitive information, but
that brings biases with it.

I'm working on keeping a dataset which will always go back to Sept. 1st.
[1] I think we should be able to maintain this, however the performance of
the UI will need to be addressed in some way, as even now it's a bit of a
hog.

Do you have a link to this tool, so I can understand a little better?
