Hey Yang,

I'm not familiar with webExtension, is there a repo we can quickly clone to reproduce this issue ? 
Thanks

Thanks Yang.
Unfortunately it seems I can't install the extension you provided (error : "The add-on could not be installed because it appears to corrupted")

Load it from about:debugging#addons (opened from Add-ons Manager - Gear menu).

I was able to install it, and I see some logs (log, and timer), in the browser console (which uses the old console frontend). But I don't know which page I should open to acknowledge the bug you are reporting.
Would it be possible to have more detailed steps to reproduce please ? Thanks !

STR:
1. Load the testcase.xpi from about:debugging#addons.
2. Check the browser console, see the console.log output work.
3. Switch the extensions.webextensions.remote to false, reload the testcase, see the console.time/timeEnd output work in browser console.

Can you explain the "No longer blocks: 1190679"? Thanks.

Tried STR from Comment 6, and I can see time: 0ms - time ended in both the about:devtools-toolbox for the extension, as well as in the Browser Toolbox (as long as "Show content messages" is enabled, which we might not want, but that's something we'll look at in Bug 1765295)
