Topics for This Week

Startup Performance
Last week we talked about the ongoing work to improve pageload performance. We also started looking at startup profiles and filed a meta bug for making improvements. Several bugs have been filed and are in-progress. Please take a read this mailing post to learn how you can do your own profiling or at least look over the posted profiles.
Crashes
Wanted to point out some crashes that could use a look. (1) NPE in LayerView.setZoomConstraints (bug 936008) (2) ConcurrentModificationException in NotificationHelper.clearAll (needs a bug).
Welcome Eugen Sawin
Joining the mobile platform team and will be in Mountain View this week and next, afterwards he'll be working from home in Germany.
