Attached patch Remove the job scheduler (deleted) β€” β€” Splinter Review
We dropped the idea of multi-threaded tile rendering so we don't have a use case for this right now, there are bitrotted patches pending on reviews for a year, and more importantly several seconds spent running the scheduler tests in each push, which is a waste of infra since we don't have plans to use this in the foreseeable future.

If we look into something like this again in the future, rust would be a much better place for building this type of system.

We should reland this.

Pushed this to try again today and the windows builds are still failing on some mysterious and unrelated code, due to unified build hazards I presume. https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&author=nsilva@mozilla.com&selectedJob=130637149

This is pretty far down my list, so I don't think I'll investigate it in the short term. We could comment out the test as a short term thing if we want to save some infra.

The rs bustages are actually caused by an infra issue with autograph that started appearing coincidentally on your push,
I've relanded your changeset: https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/autoland/rev/e279dd585ca79987498c58c9eec40f80e9c05bcb

Sorry for the inconvenience!
