I did wonder about the impact on page load modality (specifically for the , but at least the ve-vp8-rt-cam cpuTime issue looks like a separate thing.

I enabled replicates on the [ve-vp8-rt-cam cpuTime graph](https://treeherder.mozilla.org/perfherder/graphs?highlightAlerts=1&highlightChangelogData=0&highlightCommonAlerts=0&highlightInitialDataPoints=0&replicates=1&series=autoland,5822429,1,13&showTable=0&timerange=1209600) and it looks like the test has now become bimodal; previously it was only in the lower mode, and now we have data points in a new higher mode. I clicked a few of the dots and downloaded the `browsertime-results.tgz` artifact from the job (click the "job" link in the tooltip to get there), and it looks like the middle run of three is now taking more CPU time:

So that seems like a real change from this patch.

I looked at the [ve-vp8-rt-cam cpuTime graph with replicates enabled](https://treeherder.mozilla.org/perfherder/graphs?highlightAlerts=1&highlightChangelogData=0&highlightCommonAlerts=0&highlightInitialDataPoints=0&replicates=1&series=autoland,5822429,1,13&showTable=0&timerange=1209600) and it looks like the replicates within the test have now become bimodal; previously it we only had data points in the lower mode, and now we have some data points in a new higher mode.
