Given bug 1155879, we need to add chunks now to avoid the frequent 120min timeouts we're hitting now on AWS-based Linux reftests.
How does one add "chunks" to a test suite for a specific build config? If you can point me to a bug where we've done that before, I can help find a hacker to do it. Thanks!

Doing so is trivial. The only reason it hasn't been done is disagreement as to whether we should be wallpapering over the regression or not.

I added my findings to bug 1155879 comment 12 to support the test splitting. Let me know if you need more info to make the change.
catlee, are you satisfied?
Flags: needinfo?(catlee)
yes!

still needed?

We did this in other bugs. And presumably any future changes will happen in Taskcluster land.
