Flags: needinfo?(emilio)

We're using a different font, which can plausibly affect these numbers... Given the magnitude of the change I don't think this is worth digging-into a lot deeper... Jonathan wdyt?

Flags: needinfo?(emilio) → needinfo?(jfkthame)

Yeah, I don't think this is worth pursuing. It could well be that we used to use an already-cached font for LinkedIn, and now we're loading a new one that the content process hasn't used yet. Not really significant or interesting, just an artifact of how the site is styled and how the test runs.
