Add-ons

Stability

• https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1320048 is now the top overall browser crash on Aurora. It will be fixed when Apple releases 10.2.3

Beta

  • https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1322554 (2.75% of browser crashes)
  • probably malware-related as well
• [@ mozilla::layers::ClientLayerManager::GetRemoteRenderer] #11 browser crasher

  • https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1324908
• ADD-ONS: result: do not see reason to stop based on first 2 weeks of data, but needs investigation in 2 areas. add-ons with e10s improve cpow use, hangs, plug-in, and fewer main crashes (. worsens content crash rate since dec 17 - 22nd it moves higher for only e10s with add-ons (roughly ~3.5 more crashes per hour with add-ons) and more jank (gc_maxpause_ms) (5-8%) - investigating causes at 11. perf: https://github.com/benmiroglio/e10s_analyses/blob/master/beta/51/ stability: https://sql.telemetry.mozilla.org/dashboard/stability-metrics-for-e10s-add-ons-experiment-beta-49-50-51-

Release

[marcia]

• #3 Top browser crash http://bit.ly/2i6HBzr has three different bugs associated with it - there are crashes on Mac, Windows and Linux. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1135562#c33 says there is not much we can do about it. Are we sure all three bugs are the same root cause?
