Talos has detected a Firefox performance regression from push: https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/pushloghtml?changeset=4632e7d90224f898dcfb675c47cacfa9784be5f5 As author of one of the patches included in that push, we need your help to address this regression. Regressions: 5% rasterflood_svg windows7-32 opt e10s stylo 10,662.08 -> 11,150.99 Improvements: 12% tp5o_webext responsiveness linux64 opt e10s stylo 1.19 -> 1.05 You can find links to graphs and comparison views for each of the above tests at: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/perf.html#/alerts?id=13154 On the page above you can see an alert for each affected platform as well as a link to a graph showing the history of scores for this test. There is also a link to a treeherder page showing the Talos jobs in a pushlog format.

We ended up with this 5% perf regression, which didn't previously replicate on mozilla-inbound or autoland. And still doesn't. Given what we discussed during the work week in Baia Mare, I'm handing out the investigation of this to Release Management.

:ryanvm- could you redirect this as needed? this was seen on the 61 merge to beta- possibly related to a config change.

Patrick, maybe you can help find someone to investigate? This could probably be bisected on Try, though it'll be a bit tedious to do so (you'd need to manually apply the Beta-specific config changes on top of every rev prior to pushing). There do appear to be a number of devtools changes in that push.

Looking at DevTools-only changesets in this pushlog, I think we can safely ignore the following ones: 82c6cbd1db13 Gabriel Luong — Bug 1458745 - Only get the notification box in the inspector for the debugger warning only if the debugger is paused. r=pbro 19576ace167c Gabriel Luong — Bug 1433718 - Follow up: fix eslint errors in rule-editor.js; r=me b7aeba47bb1f Gabriel Luong — Bug 1433718 - Make unit tests pass with the 3 pane inspector on in nightly. r=pbro f64dc9958646 Gabriel Luong — Bug 1458749 - Remove checks for old traits in the inspector. r=pbro 1bf642a3af2a Jan Odvarko — Bug 1458092 - Netmonitor - minor visual tweaks to new toolbar; r=davidwalsh af05b5813fc7 Gabriel Luong — Bug 1459257 - Check the inspector is visible before showing the 3 pane onboarding tooltip. r=jdescottes daaa9249868c J. Ryan Stinnett — Bug 1457804 - Use content size for DevTools highlighter writing mode adjustments. r=gl a1abfeb6a79a Michael Ratcliffe — Bug 1098374 - Telemetry: Stop all monkey patching in devtools telemetry tests r=yulia 1a810001d12e yulia — Bug 1441792 - add waitForRequestData to netmonitor test head r=Honza,ochameau f7b95c137dba yulia — Bug 1441792 - fix browser_net_resend.js and convert to async/await r=yulia 2c55003986b3 yulia — Bug 1382580 - Delete old event emitter; r=nchevobbe 398457c41176 yulia — Bug 1382580 - Remove old-event-emitter alias from webconsole; r=nchevobbe 31d43eae6c14 yulia — Bug 1382580 - Replace mention of the old event emitter with the new one in documentation; r=nchevobbe 2fc5c1baf4d3 yulia — Bug 1382580 - remove old-event-emitter from old debugger; r=nchevobbe 5bc4513eef70 Gabriel Luong — Bug 1458770 - Use the toolbox's Telemetry instance in the Inspector. r=miker Indeed, rasterflood_svg seems to be a graphics benchmark test where devtools never gets opened. So these changes should not be related to the regression. Now, there is this interesting change: 8f88c817b334 Alexandre Poirot — Bug 1454580 - Add a DAMP test to watch RDP/protocol.js performance. r=jryans This one adds a new test inside the DAMP talos suite. So DAMP regressed as a result, but this was expected because we added the new test. So we're good there, but I'm just wondering if there's a chance one talos test could negatively impact another talos test. The only other DevTools-related change I can see there is: 4832928b4bb4 Gabriel Luong — Bug 1433718 - Make unit tests pass with the 3 pane inspector on in nightly. r=pbro and I know it had an impact on perf but: a) it should only impact DAMP and b) it got backed out in the same pushlog. Finally, I see the following 4 changesets from Brad who's on the DevTools team: d462d502c26b Brad Werth — Bug 1436431 Part 4: Disable and update an existing mochitest of find-in-page. r=bz dc092a92c289 Brad Werth — Bug 1436431 Part 3: Add a test to ensure overflow text in the viewport is findable. r=bz ec1b3f950848 Brad Werth — Bug 1436431 Part 2: Change nsTypeAheadFind::IsRangeVisible to additionally check for visibility of range rects; not just the range's primary frame. r=bz b0c260eb196c Brad Werth — Bug 1436431 Part 1: Extend PresShell::GetRectVisibility to consider the target frame's scrollable ancestors. r=bz those are the only changes that may be related to my team's work which could potentially have had that perf impact. So let me needinfo Brad so he can take a look at this.

From reading the test description, there's no reason to think it would trigger find-in-page behavior. I don't think these changes are responsible for the slowdown.

(In reply to Ionuț Goldan [:igoldan], Performance Sheriffing from comment #6) > Thoughts on how to continue with the investigations? Since the regression is in SVG performance, it's just really unlikely to be devtools related since our tools currently don't attach to SVG documents. I would look for anything about "display" and I found this: 2fe7f347fbbd Matt Woodrow — Bug 1456534 - Make sure we do a full display list rebuild on the next frame after creating a displayport during painting. r=mstange

That bug just disables retained-dl in some situation, so it's possible, but only if RDL improved this test previously. I don't remember seeing an improvement alert, but it might have happened. I'd say it's still worth bisecting this to be sure.

I've come back with the results [1]. The backout doesn't highlight any kind of difference. So I guess bug 1456534 isn't the culprit.

Any updates on this?
Not really. This is a regression older than one year & we don't store data this old.

I think at this point we have no option but to accept this regression due to the amount of time that has passed since it was detected. We need to address our workflow to prevent such a long time passing without a decision. Bug 1520714 may help to ensure the assigned sheriff follows up in a timely manner, as well as tighter collaboration with release management.
