The Daily What is a blog with lots of images, videos, and ads from various sources. It always felt a bit slow to load for me, so I made a very simple peptest, which confirms that there are many periods where the unresponsiveness goes above 50 ms while the page is loading: PEP TEST-START | test_dailyWhat.js PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 103 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 199 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 112 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 204 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 105 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 57 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 79 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 194 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 202 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 68 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 182 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 63 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 84 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 118 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 51 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 55 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 67 ms PEP WARNING | test_dailyWhat.js | open_page | unresponsive time: 215 ms PEP TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL | test_dailyWhat.js | fail threshold: 0.0 | metric: 322.362 PEP TEST-END | test_dailyWhat.js | finished in: 9426 ms This was on 64-bit Ubuntu 11.10 on a MacBook Pro. I have confirmed that this also occurs in 32-bit Firefox on a 64-bit Windows 7 machine (one unresponsive period was over 3 seconds in length). Attached is the peptest that simply loads the page and looks for unresponsiveness. To run the test, see https://wiki.mozilla.org/Auto-tools/Projects/peptest#Running_Tests.
What does "unresponsive time: N ms" mean in this context? That we went N ms without servicing the event loop?

Yup, that's what it means. It uses ted's EventTracer code: http://blog.mozilla.com/ted/2011/06/27/measuring-ui-responsiveness/ Peptest specifically notes when the event loop was stuck for more than 50 ms during particular actions, as per the requirements of Project Snappy.
Ok, the next question here then is what we're doing during those intervals. Can this tool tell us that, or do we need to dig in with other tools?

Not yet, I think we'll be able to use the work done on bug 580055 but it is currently blocked.

This could be a good testcase, but it sounds like we'd need somebody to run a profiler, or wait until we have better profiling tools, to analyze what is going on here.
