903011 - Firefox still seems to be unresponsive occasionally when starting with the profiler

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Gecko Profiler, defect)

Attachment: logcat

We now have profiling working with Eideticker for the Galaxy Nexus, but it still seems to be hanging on startup occasionally (to the point where we rarely seem to make it through a full run).

Here's a logcat of a failing run from last night.

Is there a particular test that's more prone to this? I haven't been able to reproduce it on my Galaxy Nexus.

Here's the last 7 failures (in 9 days)

cnn
nytimes-scroll
startup-abouthome-fresh
taskjs
cnn
nytimes-zoom
taskjs

Looks like cnn and taskjs are the ones that fail more often

This is a very old bug, and things have changed a lot. If you still see the same issue, please re-open/re-file.
