Stability
Aurora
- bug 837370 (js::types::TypeCompartment::addPendingRecompile) - waiting on results of diagnostic patch that landed
- bug 836951 (nsSecureBrowserUIImpl::MapInternalToExternalState) - waiting on review of tests for bug blocking this
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798274 (gfxContext::PushGroupAndCopyBackground) is rising in yesterday's data
Beta
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=836263 (Crossrider) was rising in the last days, we need more investigation there. #6 on beta, #5 on release now.
Release
- Bug 812683 and bug 819028 (D2D/D3D11-6.2/Win7) seem to be declining, a recent NVidia driver update could be related. Bug 805406 (gfxContext::PushClipsToDT) is not affected and remains at high volume (#11).
Mobile
- We did get bug 846465 (libstagefright, mp3 playing, HTC devices, JB) into beta yesterday, so 20 should be even more stable now.
