    What is your intended go live date and how long will the experiment run?

Jan 26, 2021 - Mar 27, 2021 (60 days)

    What is the main effect you are looking for and what data will you use to
    make these decisions?

We are planning a rollout to only 50% of the Nightly population and we will observed performance of the feature by comparing the enrolled group and not-enrolled group.

We will look at 2 aspects: the page load performance and the HTTP request error rate.

The page load performance will be analyze by looking at following metrics and comparing them between the enrolled and not-enrolled population:

 - PERF\_PAGE\_LOAD\_TIME\_MS

 - PERF\_FIRST\_CONTENTFUL\_PAINT\_MS

The HTTP error rate will be measured by metric HTTP\_CHANNEL\_ONSTART\_SUCCESS. The metrics will be compared between the enrolled and not-enrolled group.

Performance measurements should be in parity with the not-enrolled group or better. We expect PERF\_PAGE\_LOAD\_TIME\_MS and PERF\_FIRST\_CONTENTFUL\_PAINT\_MS to be the same or better.

Failure rate is expected to be slightly increased with HTTP3 feature turned on. A higher failure rate can be tolerated as long as the performance criteria is satisfied.

Tested Firefox versions:

  • Nightly 86.0a1 en-US (Build ID: 20210119091250)

  • Nightly 86.0a1 fr (Build ID: 20210119091250)

[Tracking Requested - why for this release]: this is a nightly only experiment. since it is large - we've cleared it with the other large experiment - Fission. Both are fine / could benefit from co-habitation.

User Story: (updated)
Summary: [Experiment]: Staged Rollout: HTTP3 on Nightly → [Experiment] Pref-Flip Experiment: HTTP3 on Nightly Fx 86.0 to 88.0 Nightly
Start Date: 2021-01-26 End Date: 2021-03-27

I don't think it needs tracking for 86 as we are already in Beta.
