446621 - Slowdown on AutoComplete - AwesomeBar

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[Jim Jeffery not reading bug-mail 1/2/11]

With today's build, I've noted a drastic slowdown in Autocomplete. 
Typing in a single letter was 'instant' results in past builds, but today's build takes about 2-secs before anything is returned. 

Others in the MozForums have noted the same slowdown. 

Suspect that bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=424557 
is the cause.

Can you check hourlies to see if it's bug 424557 or bug 412736?

I meant hourly builds from yesterday between the time of the two checkins.

OK in:

Broke in:

I still don't like the way regression testing works now, there is no way a build was made in 2 mins.  I understand builds comes from one of 3 build machines, but I still have no idea how to check the builds for what patch went in.

So the build times are late enough that the slowdown is attributed to bug 412736?

[Jim Jeffery not reading bug-mail 1/2/11]

Yes, I believe so...
