Moving to DOM, just based on the benchmark name.

Yeah, wasn't totally sure about that. Dithered for a while since it was on JS manipulation of DOM. In interests of narrowing things down, here are few more dates: [domDynamicCreationCreateElement] 2010-01-11: 91149.00 2010-01-13: 96733.531 2010-01-15: 96340.000 ~9.7% decline Since the values seem better, updated summary.
Summary: Recent drop in Peacekeeper performance on DOM tests - about 3-5% → Recent drop in Peacekeeper performance on DOM tests - about 3-10%
This might be related. community02ParseXML over 10 trials seems to have dropped about 2.6% 144.156 in 2010-01-15 vs 140.353 in trunk.
After a few more build downloads. Looks like 2010-02-01 is also consistently slower than 2010-02-15 by the same margin, so that shrinks it to 2010-01-16 to 2010-01-31 I guess.
Retesting w/ the slightly hackish process of: javascript:var j=0;var i=setInterval(function(){document.getElementsByTagName("input")[1].click();j++;if(j==20) clearInterval(i); },10000);void 0 on run.html. domDynamicCreateElement (x20) 2010-01-13: 95924.5 2010-01-22: 94164.5 2010-01-26: 92642.0 2010-01-29: 90301.0 This is a bit odder since I'm seeing a steady decline, which makes no sense. I tried starting and restarting, and also running the days in different order in case it had something to do with my machine. So, now I'm just confused.

So do we have anything like a regression window here?
Ok, well. Something odd is going odd, unusual variation with runs on my machine, nonetheless there does seem to be a dividing point. Today's runs. doDynamicCreationCreateElement x20 2010-01-13: 95652.0, 96500.5 2010-02-01: 93907.5 2010-02-08: 85429.5, 90715.5 2010-02-15: 76101.0, 75294.5 2010-03-30: 87178.0, 86848.5 I'll download more builds between 2010-02-01 and 2010-02-08 tomorrow. Also rerun 2010-02-01 a few more times. I'll also try some of the other slow tests to see if results are more consistent. Another possibility is I guess the test has tremendous variation due to, oh, dunno, random GC or somesuch, and the results are completely unreliable. I wish the test would give deviation for its internal runs, get some sort of error margin. Still, it seems there is definitely worse performance on recent ones.
Ok. Switching to domDynamicCreationInnerHTML (x20) since the results seemed (a bit) less variable Date Runs of 20 Proportional to 2010-01-15 2010-01-13: 124990.653, 125109.937, 125361.478 99.5% 2010-01-15: 125484.909, 125837.676, 125939.188 100.0% 2010-01-16: 97981.011, 78436.500, 91146.107 70.9% 2010-01-18: 89317.000, 96168.000, 91442.500 73.4% 2010-01-22: 96566.831, 119587.630, 115642.776, 99341.90 85.7% 2010-01-26: 112743.695, 98514.185, 112428.921 85.8% 2010-02-01: 114517.118, 112148.835 90.1% * 2010-02-15: 105165.167, 104646.123 83.4% 2010-03-30: 112917.941, 112976.959, 114393.885 90.2% * Calling this one 2010-02-15 since I'd swear that's what I downloaded from ftp.mozilla.org and that's what I called it in prior timings above, but it appears to be "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.3a2pre) Gecko/20100216 Minefield/3.7a2pre" from http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/ed7d1a491a8e Since it has been consistently slower, I guess that's just something specific to that build. Some of the runs seemed to be significantly slower by a roughly consistent margin (2010-01-16 2nd, 2010-01-22 1st, 2010-01-26 2nd). Not sure why. But when they weren't at that lower level, their higher level was significantly below the old speeds. Ok. Soooo, based on this tedious and perhaps not-totally-accurate approach, that places it at between: 2010-01-15 and 2010-01-16. Once again the window is right on the edge of the build I was trying, and right near that other regression at 2010-01-12. You guys were busy that week :) 2010-01-15: http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/f66f5b9a7aaf 2010-01-16: http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/96dd0b76a3e1

http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=f66f5b9a7aaf&tochange=96dd0b76a3e1 doesn't look like it contains anything relevant....

This sucks. ... Well, I went back in time since my 2nd machine wasn't doing anything anyway. Date Runs of 20 Proportional to 2010-01-15 2009-08-01: 107990.906 85.9% 2009-11-05: 107458.276, 106329.833 85.0% 2009-12-20: 114383.487, 113957.036, 113539.034 90.6% 2010-01-10: 115752.002, 115676.418 92.0% 2010-01-11: 114761.290, 115871.391 91.7% 2010-01-13: 124990.653, 125109.937, 125361.478 99.5% 2010-01-15: 125484.909, 125837.676, 125939.188 100.0% 2010-01-16: 97981.011, 78436.500, 91146.107 70.9% 2010-01-18: 89317.000, 96168.000, 91442.500 73.4% 2010-01-22: 96566.831, 119587.630, 115642.776, 99341.90 85.7% 2010-01-26: 112743.695, 98514.185, 112428.921 85.8% 2010-02-01: 114517.118, 112148.835 90.1% 2010-02-15: 105165.167, 104646.123 83.4% 2010-03-30: 112917.941, 112976.959, 114393.885 90.2% Looks like the performance on 2010-01-13 to 2010-01-15 was perhaps due to something that got added, then removed? I suppose, in that case, this should just be closed...

Per bz's suggestion, resolving incomplete. The progression of percentages is interesting, but I have no idea what it means. Perhaps some premature optimisation that had to be rolled back.
