Eyeballing the corresponding graphs for the last 30 days,

| 10% | allrecipes | LastVisualChange | android-hw-g5-7-0-arm7-api-16-shippable | warm | 7,672.88 -> 8,442.17 |

It seems this one somehow got some benefit from bug 1697215, but got back to the performance levels from before. Obviously, this means there's room for optimization improvements, but considering we're not worse than what we were 2 weeks ago, I'd say let's ignore it.

| 3% | google-docs | ContentfulSpeedIndex | linux1804-64-shippable | cold | 2,168.12 -> 2,237.92 |

It seems used to be bimodal before bug 1697215, somehow stopped being bimodal until bug 1708379 and is now bimodal again.

| 2% | google-docs | SpeedIndex | linux1804-64-shippable | cold | 1,768.47 -> 1,808.92 |

It seems there is a large variance that makes this one unreliable.
