I noticed on ESR we don't run tests like dt-wr, or the ss job. These are meant to be run on trunk. I do see some jobs that are run and I wonder if we need to be running them:

  1. awsy (linux64/osx/windows7+10)
  2. devtools (linux32+64/osx/windows7+10)

I wonder if we have any devtools users that use esr branches? Likewise esr is just security fixes, do we need awsy?

:erahm, thoughts on awsy on esr (#1 above)?

:jlast, thoughts on devtools on esr (#2 above)?

:erahm, thoughts on awsy on esr (#1 above)?

I would be be very surprised if we have ever put together an ESR-only fix for a memory regression (I'm sure we've uplifted fixes in the past, just not due to a regression that only showed up on ESR). I certainly don't track these numbers, so from my perspective disabling AWSY on ESR would be okay.

Hmm, I'll re-route this question to honza/patrick as it is more of a global devtools concern.

Harald, do you have stats on DevTools users on ESR?

6.5% of ESR MAU are using (opening) DevTools. In absolute numbers (DevTools MAU), it is our second-biggest channel.

Given that we believe that Enterprise web webs have a fair share of influence regarding browser choice in companies, I would recommend that we ensure high quality DevTools experience.

great to hear that! I will only remove AWSY related jobs.

:egao, can you disable the AWSY jobs for ESR (land on central, then get it merged to ESR)?

Will take a look.
