83% of crashes are startup. currently #24 crash for TB v8. note, perhaps 40-50% or more (based on my small examination of ~8 crashes) have nokia suite installed, which has been known to cause crashes my crash is bp-b1403a66-cf5f-47ab-b6f7-5152a2111129 below, having just installed and started http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/try-builds/mconley@mozilla.com-1b6eedda6ea5/try-comm-central-win32/thunderbird-11.0a1.en-US.win32.installer.exe from bug 508776 0 nspr4.dll PR_JoinThread nsprpub/pr/src/threads/combined/pruthr.c:1545 1 xul.dll mozilla::scache::StartupCache::WaitOnWriteThread startupcache/StartupCache.cpp:445 2 xul.dll mozilla::scache::StartupCache::GetBuffer startupcache/StartupCache.cpp:258 3 xul.dll nsXULPrototypeCache::GetInputStream content/xul/document/src/nsXULPrototypeCache.cpp:440 4 xul.dll nsXULPrototypeCache::GetPrototype content/xul/document/src/nsXULPrototypeCache.cpp:186 5 xul.dll nsXULDocument::LoadOverlayInternal content/xul/document/src/nsXULDocument.cpp:2713 6 xul.dll nsXULDocument::ResumeWalk content/xul/document/src/nsXULDocument.cpp:3100 7 xul.dll nsXULDocument::OnStreamComplete content/xul/document/src/nsXULDocument.cpp:3594 8 xul.dll nsStreamLoader::OnStopRequest netwerk/base/src/nsStreamLoader.cpp:125 I frequently update thunderbird, never had this crash before, none of my addons updated, nor do I have nokia suite installed. would seem to be a cache issue. xref Bug 640968 - Start-up crash [@ mozilla::scache::StartupCache::WaitOnWriteThread] when showing profile locked dialog

Firefox crashes with this stack too, e.g. bp-d35a1db2-1243-4c2c-a04f-d21f82120304 Guessing at a component, please reassign as appropriate.

This is piking for User updating from Thunderbird 12.0.1 to 13.

Nathan, do you have any ideas about this? Could it be a corrupted startup cache?

(In reply to David :Bienvenu from comment #3) > Nathan, do you have any ideas about this? Could it be a corrupted startup > cache? No idea. The stack looks mildly similar to that in bug 640968.

Wayne, so your crash was a one time thing, not repeated on subsequent startup? Nathan, do we effectively invalidate the startup cache in case of corruption crash so that a crash loading the cache will result in a cacheless startup the next time?

I believe so, see http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/startupcache/StartupCache.cpp#208
