http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/xulrunner/app/Makefile.in#274 is causing us to package up a .autoreg as part of Fennec (via make package, deb, etc). This causes every startup to take 35 seconds instead of 9.
Flags: blocking1.9.1?
Benjamin, is this something our packaging scripts should deal with, or is it something xulrunner's makefile should handle? I also don't understand why this file is not getting deleted after the first run. The code in XPCOMInit doesn't seem to remove the file: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/xpcom/build/nsXPComInit.cpp#342

Simple patch that only creates the .autoreg file for debug builds [Do we even need the file for debug builds?]

The .autoreg file should not be causing every startup to be longer. Do we know why it is? We should be comparing the .autoreg file timestamp against the component registration file timestamp and only re-registering if the .autoreg has a newer timestamp.
I know Phil was wondering about this in #developers not long ago.

Comment on attachment 348402 [details] [diff] [review] patch - with real tab Clearing review for unanswered questions.
Problem is when the device clock is screwed up. For example the N810 configures time in UTC instead local timezone causing things to startup slower than needed for 8 hours after the build. I think we should add a time check to ignore .autoreg if the timestamp is in the future.

I also took out a bunch of stat() calls.

previous patch didn't check to the other timestamp comparison

Comment on attachment 351286 [details] [diff] [review] Ignore autoreg if timestamps are screwy(in box cases) This looks like an acceptable approach. However, we no longer use the NSPR LL_ macros: all our targets support native long longs, so please just use regular operators (*</)
