Weekly Status Report, W51/2010
Here's a summary of SeaMonkey/Mozilla-related work I've done in week 51/2010 (December 20 - 26, 2010):
Most of this week was filled with me taking time offline and celebrating Christmas with my parents, grandparents, brother, etc. - it's always good to spend some time with family and get your mind off work for a change (as much as that works), and I'll continue to take some time off in the next weeks.
With that, I hope you had or have some calm time yourself and can harness some energy to put into projects that help a lot of people - like Mozilla - in the upcoming year!
- Build Infrastructure:
Dustin from Mozilla RelEng stepped in finding a fix for our sqlite/threading issue with building nightlies, I applied that, and it works perfectly, so we do have nightlies for both our branches again.
The .nl machine graph post failures have been fixed by Mozilla IT, I did some work on 64bit graph posting failures but there we are waiting for IT right now, probably taking longer due to the holidays. - Places:
Did some more work on porting async star button and replied on some review comments, but need to do a bit more work here. - Various Discussions:
Ongoing graphics driver instabilities, possibly being on to a fix for mobile woes, thoughts on my next experimental projects, donation page improvements, SM Dev Mtg reimbursements, Thunderbird prefs, etc.

Webmaster |  Dove: For one thing, PGO takes double the time to build than normal builds, then it's not clear how much gain it brings for SeaMonkey (we don't have good perf numbers for normal builds, so no good comparison possible), then it's worth nothing without a good profiling script (Firefox has one that just tests/optimizes browser startup), and then we are deploying a number of other measures in the 2.1 series that should improve startup and overall speed anyhow (JaegerMonkey, omnijar, and many smaller things). Not sure how we compare with others, but I'd like to see some reliable and reproducable performance test data. |
Webmaster | I'm pretty sure it would be way less then 10% win for us. Also, please don't send me any contacts - for one thing, we know how to create PGO builds, we just don't have machine power and time to do any. For the other, I am trying to cut down my own work on SeaMonkey, not load additional tasks on my shoulders. Feel free to bring this up with the wider SeaMonkey team on newsgroups, etc. though.
