600430 - Create performance page

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Developer Pages, defect, P4)

Description

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

Mockup: http://people.mozilla.com/~chowse/drop/amo/performance/v2/03_leaderboard.png

This is a new page for zamboni, and should live at /:lang/:app/performance

This bug includes:
- Building the page at the above URL
- Making the chart show the top 10 by default
- After clicking "show more add-ons" it shows the next 40.  If it's an expensive process to get this info on the page, we can ajax this part, otherwise just hide by default.
- These columns are _not_ sortable, so you can skip that part of the mockup.

There are front end and back end pieces here.  As usual, work to your strong points and get help on the rest. :)

CCing chowse for final image deliverables
CCing jorgev for links at the bottom.  He's writing the FAQ entry now I think.

Update: due to licensing issues, we can't use the stock image in this mockup (unless we exclude it from the public source code). Here's an alternate version w/o the image:

-> Jeff for the back end.  The perf_* tables already exist, so it's just a matter of spitting that data to the front end.  Potch wants it when you're done.

Is the text for this somewhere I can copy/paste? I'm not good at transcription.

Not even with the fancy keyboard?
--------------------------------
Add-ons provide many useful features and functions for your browser.  However, add-ons can also slow down your browsing experience.  Some add-ons can even slow down Firefox until it is difficult to use for regular web browsing.  It can also be difficult to determine what add-ons are the source of the problem.  We provide this list in the hopes that it will help you identify add-ons that are affecting the performance of your browser.

Don't let poor performance affect the experience of your users.  Here are a few tips on how to keep your add-ons responsive and nimble.
--------------------------------

Little known fact:  I did some medical transcription work for a very short period of time.  Turns out, it's not easy.

Are we still planning on getting this in Q4?

Also, that intro paragraph says "browse" 3 times too many.

Add-ons provide many useful features and functions, but they can also cause Firefox to become slower. Some add-ons can even slow Firefox to a crawl and make it difficult to use for regular web browsing. If you think add-ons might be the reason Firefox is lethargic, check the list below for some of the biggest bottlenecks. And remember, for best performance you should disable add-ons that you no longer use regularly.

This page is ready for front end work, but that's what we're short on elsewhere.  I don't expect to get it finished in Q4, but I'm leaving it in the milestones in case we have time.  I don't consider it a Q4 goal.

Dropping in 5.12.10 depending on how much disco pane stuff shows up.  Note that disco pane is higher priority.  Also, please make the page validate when you're done, as I'm closing that bug. Thanks. :)

Not sure why bug 617777 was filed, but for the record — this page doesn't throw any new validation errors. The validation fails on these three existing errors which are common to almost every page on AMO:

   1. Error Line 145, Column 66: Element input is missing required attribute alt.

               src="/media/img/zamboni/global/btn-search.png?b=8b1d319">

   2. Error Line 1518, Column 71: Bad value for attribute action on element form: Must be non-empty.

            <form class="languages go" id="lang_form" method="get" action="">

   3. Error Line 1678, Column 47: Element script must not have attribute charset unless attribute src is also specified.

      <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">

I explained that in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617777#c2, but thanks for the follow-up.
