Attached image a11y-lag.png
After long session uptimes I experience increasingly worse freezes. Attempting to isolate the cause with the gecko profiler made a11y stick out in the results. See attached profiler screenshot. I read somewhere that a11y is triggered by touch input and IMEs. Would force-disabling it have any impact on that functionality?
Running with accessibility.force_disabled = 1 seems to significantly improve performance without ill effect.
David, does this tie in with the other experimentation you were doing? Anything that sticks out in the profiler log (which I can't read due to it being a graphic)?
> (which I can't read due to it being a graphic)? There seems to be no anonymize option for profiler outputs, so taking a screencap is the easiest way to minimize information leakage.
