872454 - report number of static constructors for android

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Description

[Trevor Saunders (:tbsaunde)]

we should measure the number of static constructors we have on android and maybe b2g.  according to comments in bug 579131 the script we use on linux should work for android / b2g as well, so I think all that needs to happen is for android and b2g platforms to be added to http://mxr.mozilla.org/build/source/buildbotcustom/process/factory.py#1360

No idea.  Redirecting to snorp and froydnj.

One way to determine whether it would be useful would be to look through the regressions in https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/mozilla.dev.tree-alerts/constructors and see whether they were acted upon.

It's valuable, but given philor's comment 3, and that we massively regressed the number of constructors ~3 months ago, and nobody said anything about it on Android (...or anywhere else), we probably don't care.
