Perfherder has detected a awsy performance regression from push e7bad90843c66aaf5d246b8dba73e46beeba3663. As author of one of the patches included in that push, we need your help to address this regression.

Regressions:

Ratio Test Platform Options Absolute values (old vs new)
8% Base Content Heap Unclassified macosx1015-64-shippable-qr fission 2,516,814.83 -> 2,724,034.00

Details of the alert can be found in the alert summary, including links to graphs and comparisons for each of the affected tests. Please follow our guide to handling regression bugs and let us know your plans within 3 business days, or the offending patch(es) may be backed out in accordance with our regression policy.

If you need the profiling jobs you can trigger them yourself from treeherder job view or ask a sheriff to do that for you.

For more information on performance sheriffing please see our FAQ.

This is expected: we're now (correctly) loading the italic face of the system font, so that'll increase the footprint of the macOS font-related objects that have been instantiated. The cpstartup regression noted in bug 1806844 is essentially the same thing, and a patch to try and mitigate it is landing there, so dup'ing to that bug.
