Projects
Persona slowness(ehsan/paul)
- Results from the past week
- Paul is leaving Mozilla in ~ 1 week. Need to find a new owner for this work
- Resizing the image but haven't managed to make Firefox actually use the resized image. There's still a non-trivial chunk of work that needs to be done.
Super-slow-startup investigations - vlad, taras
- Results from the past week
- bug 752868 (one aspect of add-ons manager SQLite slowness) fixed
Fix cache - hurley
- Results from the past week
- Reviews continue on bug 722034. All 8 patches have been through this round of review. One needs rework, one has been suggested to be moved to bug 746018 (which blocks bug 722034, and all its patches are r+ but has inexplicably not yet landed)
- Todo this week
- Continue trying to drive patches to final r+ and land these bugs
