1427744 - Extend tab closing and switching Telemetry probes

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Mike Conley (:mconley) (:⚙️)]

The following probes are set to expire on 2018-01-22, and are still important in our measurement of tab closing and switching performance:

FX_TAB_CLOSE_PERMIT_UNLOAD_TIME_M
FX_TAB_CLOSE_TIME_ANIM_MS
FX_TAB_CLOSE_TIME_NO_ANIM_MS
FX_TAB_SWITCH_TOTAL_E10S_MS
TABCHILD_PAINT_TIME

I'd like to kick the can and extend them another set of versions.

Hey liuche, are you willing to sign-off on this with a data-review+?

rs=me, but do we ever want these to expire? Maybe we should just set them to expires=never?

(AIUI you will still need data/privacy-review to extend the probes here)

I could be wrong on this, but I seem to recall that "expires never" is discouraged because we might then forget about the probes and collect forever without thinking about whether we need the data anymore. This kinda "renewal" model means we have to consider it every once in a while. I'm not 100% sure on the policy, however.
