(Keywords: regression, Whiteboard: [try][mozconfig][regression]) 

Bug 573199 added --disable-auto-deps to Windows 32 and 64 bit builds on try server - however this was to the buildbot-configs mozconfigs.

Bug 573722 added it to the in-tree mozconfigs, with an option in buildbotcustom to set IS_NIGHTLY=yes.

However, the IS_NIGHTLY value was only added to nightly builds, not to the try builds. Hence try windows builds may be running slower than necessary at the moment.
Priority: -- → P2
Whiteboard: [try][mozconfig][regression]
Bug 782759 / Bug 785336 have removed --disable-auto-deps, and the associated IS_NIGHTLY checks.

So I think this should probably morph into removing IS_NIGHTLY, unless there's a reason to to keep it in future (in which case it should be fixed as per comment 0).

We'll only be able to do this after Gecko 17 is released, as it is still on branches until then (although I'm not sure if it has significant affect, but anyway...).
Summary: --disable-auto-deps no longer being set for Windows (32/64) try server builds → Remove unused IS_NIGHTLY environment variable after Gecko 17
Product: mozilla.org → Release Engineering
Buildbot is on life support, don't care...
