OK, to reopen this discussion ... I suggested in Bug 1151371 to activate the status "IN_PROGRESS" in bmo and use this status for bugs that are "in progress" ("patch in work") and that everybody use the status "applied" in future only as "taken" or as "in the to-dos-list" like the others do. My

Counter-intuitively, having multiple content processes may use less memory than taking screenshots per tab. Especially if we use the same COW forking FFOS uses the overhead of a content processes should be very small, certainly less than a high resolution screenshot kept around. Not sure do wha

e10s team will probably answer these questions better than I can... Is the duration of this delay measured in telemetry anywhere, I don't think any existing Telemetry probes measure this effect. We have the FX_TAB_* histograms but I doubt they reflect the duration of the tab-switch throbber anim

With desktop e10s on there can be a noticeable delay after switching tabs where there is a throbber displayed before the page content. Is the duration of this delay measured in telemetry anywhere, and do we have criteria for how much delay is acceptable in this case? If e10s were off, do we ex
