pawn and maya both took hits in Tp on 22 May sometime between 11am and noon-ish; pawn appeared to jump 15% (!) and maya 4% (pawn from a fairly-constant 952ms to a fairly-constant 1099ms, and maya from 305ms to 318ms).
pawn's last good build began at ca. 09:40 and the first bad build began ca. 11:40; maya's last good build began at ca. 11:06 and the first bad build began ca. 14:10. Between the start of maya's last good build and the start of pawn's first bad one is http://tinyurl.com/hvbrw which looks like mento's checkin for bug 338357.
(The red build on pawn a couple of cycles later fubared the graph server for most of this week; it just today started actually loading graphs when requesting 7 days worth of data :-( thus the belated catch).
Seems to be Camino-only; planetoid was recovering from its own missing builds but stayed within an apparent range; atlantia, of course, doesn't run Tp :/

338357 was Cocoa-only, and we don't have any Cocoa tinderboxes other than Camino, so it wouldn't have showed up anywhere else if that's the cause.
I guess I could go back to adding and removing things from the NSView hierarchy with deferred additions/removals? I'm a little wary of doing it that way unless we know exactly what conditions cause the breakage and what conditons work.

I just did some tests in cocoafox with a few alternate approaches and actually seem to get the best perf with the code that's currently in the tree.

yay, so embedding is just SOL?

Dunno yet, I want to do the same tests with Camino.

Did a few new tests. Now I see that the proposed changes do improve performance. The weird numbers I saw yesterday might have been the result of doing perf testing on debug builds. (Yeah, I know it's evil, but it's what I had available at the time.)
Carbonfox baseline: 809
Cocoafox current: 1039 (28% suck)
Cocoafox backout: 888 (15% better than current, but unstable)
Cocoafox alt. fix: 867 (17% better than current, may flicker?)
(still 7% suck relative to carbonfox)
Camino current: 1795
Camino backout: 1657 (8% better than current, but unstable)
Camino alt. fix: 1546 (14% better than current, may flicker?)
"Backout" is a backout of bug 338357, "alternate fix" uses the delayed-perform patch from that bug.
The Camino suck compared to Firefox is mostly because of the event model used for embedding apps, I think.

This is a clean version of "alternate fix," which fixes bug 338357 by delaying the NSView tree changes. The problem is that when it's used with Camino, it causes flicker-to-white when a new page is loaded.

Is that a different flicker-to-white than bug 313811?

Any idea what is going on with fixing this regression?

At this point it is pretty buried. I think we shouldn't have been doing what we were doing before, so fixing this perf regression without a functional regression probably isn't going to happen. I remember spending a while looking into this with Mento and we didn't find a way to do it without bad behavior.
