gcp and I discussed the possibility of using push.
Need to let a Firefox run for 1-2 days and log all updates, then process the log and see how often there were no updates in the 30-45 minute update window, so where we effectively went online and did an update check for nothing.

See also Bug 1031160. Is this something that should be limited to Android, or is it applicable for desktop, too?
OS: Mac OS X → Android
Hardware: x86 → All
blassey's proposal would be applicable to desktop too.

Simple analysis script
The outcome of running the analysis script on the logs is...that every single 30 minute spaced update ends up downloading data and update the database: Update at 2014-11-12 12:31:26.278252 delay 0 minutes, 0 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 13:00:10.622261 delay 28 minutes, 3808 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 13:30:00.267559 delay 29 minutes, 3599 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 14:00:37.050257 delay 30 minutes, 7378 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 14:30:10.815466 delay 29 minutes, 8192 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 15:00:52.971238 delay 30 minutes, 12738 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 15:30:03.718076 delay 29 minutes, 4296 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 16:01:52.435503 delay 31 minutes, 5837 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 16:32:39.152793 delay 30 minutes, 5719 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 17:00:39.871105 delay 28 minutes, 5680 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 17:31:37.942764 delay 30 minutes, 4733 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 18:02:02.597752 delay 30 minutes, 6728 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 18:31:31.255913 delay 29 minutes, 4305 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 19:03:21.968364 delay 31 minutes, 6622 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 19:31:47.678387 delay 28 minutes, 5897 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 20:01:59.359068 delay 30 minutes, 4053 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 20:31:09.078595 delay 29 minutes, 3874 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 21:02:23.771388 delay 31 minutes, 5189 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 21:31:08.463747 delay 28 minutes, 3882 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 22:01:59.138444 delay 30 minutes, 4636 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 22:32:47.840446 delay 30 minutes, 8109 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 23:03:18.519815 delay 30 minutes, 11157 bytes Update at 2014-11-12 23:35:09.230081 delay 31 minutes, 13168 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 00:04:15.901222 delay 29 minutes, 8591 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 00:32:50.578565 delay 28 minutes, 16622 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 01:03:03.304404 delay 30 minutes, 56487 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 01:34:26.073013 delay 31 minutes, 12928 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 02:03:24.756840 delay 28 minutes, 7112 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 02:34:57.439494 delay 31 minutes, 8464 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 03:04:56.200627 delay 29 minutes, 6700 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 03:33:13.918090 delay 28 minutes, 7248 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 04:03:37.625108 delay 30 minutes, 11771 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 04:34:13.331620 delay 30 minutes, 6744 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 05:05:03.067462 delay 30 minutes, 5794 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 05:36:35.772569 delay 31 minutes, 5594 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 06:06:50.478707 delay 30 minutes, 5366 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 06:35:41.176673 delay 28 minutes, 3189 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 07:04:39.868136 delay 28 minutes, 3803 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 07:36:24.566616 delay 31 minutes, 5876 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 08:08:02.299993 delay 31 minutes, 3515 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 08:38:58.996585 delay 30 minutes, 3083 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 09:09:12.692861 delay 30 minutes, 6028 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 09:38:18.421405 delay 29 minutes, 5329 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 10:10:07.139587 delay 31 minutes, 4538 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 10:38:38.816951 delay 28 minutes, 3809 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 11:09:19.530012 delay 30 minutes, 5438 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 11:37:46.226775 delay 28 minutes, 5906 bytes Update at 2014-11-13 12:08:50.936138 delay 31 minutes, 501 bytes (400 BAD HTTP response!)
