532903 - Expose timeout runtime information

Status: NEW

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect, P5)

Description

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

Similar to bug 532902, and probably depends on it, but the idea here would be to expose information on how much time (wall clock is easy, since we keep track of it already; CPU is harder) each timer has tended to take in the recent past.

Can't we do that with jsd profiling?

Possibly, but jsd perturbs the system to a significant enough degree that I'm not sure I trust its results.
