[...] the offending patch(es) will be backed out

So users will get 0,5-10s hangs again on opening various website pages, not good idea.

I suspect this is just the opposite of bug 1650397 :). But not all things reported yet.

Flags: needinfo?(bas)

[QF triage]: Bas: now that some time has passed since this was filed, do we have any more information about what the best next-action is here? (And is this a real regression, or are we just shifting some work around in a way that makes some things faster & other things slower, or something else?)

Flags: needinfo?(bas)

Yeah, this is just due to fixing a bug that we introduced in the initial landing of the scheduler. With that in mind, closing.
