Please keep your update to under 2 minutes!

James W. (snorp), Android Platform Team (Jim, Randall, Eugen, Randall)

  • I'm working on updating our tile size and pool size to account for modern devices. Right now we barely cache enough tiles to even cover the screen on many devices, and with quad HD ones coming out soon (or already?) it will get worse. Once fixed, this should help alleviate checkerboarding some. Paint suppression work also continues, need to refactor a bit. I'm also looking into a hack using 'screenrecord' for the devtools guys.
  • Jim continues on JNI changes. We will soon be opening the browser window with a JNI call instead of the commandline, which allows us to easily hook up to the GeckoView that requested it.
  • Dylan is working on some bugs, including some JNI stuff
  • Randall is making good progress on APZ. He figured out some of the causes of bad event coordinates, and continues to fight through more of the same. It feels like we're getting close to solving all of the really bad stuff here.
  • Eugen is fixing some media bugs, including getting hardware-decoded VP8/VP9 to work with MSE. This is important because YouTube really wants to use that. He also has some results from a tool he's working on to time how long JS imports take. It is depressing. 2.9s to import all of our stupid JS on startup! https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8844853
