1347269 - External media twitch tests are not loading fast enough on Linux TaskCluster runs

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing Graveyard :: external-media-tests, enhancement)

Description

[Bryce Seager van Dyk [:bryce] (he/him) - Not reading bugmail]

Bug 1344961 shows an incidence of Linux test failures where it is taking a long amount of time for the test page to load -- the logs show pages not completely loaded by the time we encounter timeouts. Some of these are tests against debug builds, which are now disabled by bug 1343999, but it would be desirable to address these remaining failures.

Attachment: Bug 1347269 - Increase taskcluster instance size for linux twitch tests.

This attempts to address intermittent twitch test failures on Linux by having
the tests run on beefier hardware. Bug 1344961 shows a number of failures
where tests timeout before page loading is complete, the hope here is that
more powerful hardware speed up these load times.
