STR: 1) Use |make reference-workload-light| to load sms in SMS app. 2) launch SMS App and scroll. You will see big FPS difference between these two commits: 1) Good Commit: (FPS ~55) gaia : commit 467ef8c9145d9a57d35b0619db541d23b522b958 Author: Germ<C3><A1>n Toro del Valle <gtorodelvalle@gmail.com> Date: Wed Feb 5 15:33:38 2014 +0100 Merge pull request #15950 from gtorodelvalle/contacts-967540-invalid-dates-in-gmail.

The commits here for gecko isn't helpful. I need the short version of the gecko commit to do a push log here. Can you include the short version of each gecko commit here for bad vs. good?

bug 965593 is in this range (which is known to cause scrolling perf regressions) - can you guys try backing out the 1.3 branch in your gecko branch & seeing if there's any difference here?

I have *NOT* verified with high speed camera. But it seems to me that all visible stutters in SMS APP goes away.

That actually means the regression is on the Gaia side, not the Gecko side.

I'm just operate under the analysis we've already done that bug 965593 is likely the cause here.
Depends on: 965593

Whiteboard: [CR 620477] → [CR 620477][c=handeye p= s= u=1.3]
move this to general component for now as it looks like gecko bug
Component: Gaia::SMS → General
Whats the status here?
blocking-b2g: 1.3? → 1.3+
This should be fixed now that I have backed out bug 965593 everywhere. Please test and confirm.
Component: General → Panning and Zooming
Product: Firefox OS → Core
Jason Can you please have this tested?
Flags: needinfo?(jsmith)
Merge of bug 965593 backout: https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/56f2d96b6e12 You can ask RelEng to trigger a new nightly off m-c tip if you need a build to test.
This isn't really something QA can test - A lot of us aren't trained to do formal FPS studies. The performance team I think knows how though. I'm going to redirect this to Mason, as he worked identifying this problem previously in his approach.
Flags: needinfo?(jsmith) → needinfo?(mchang)
We can't do accurate scroll FPS tests, but I already tested during the process of bug 974081, where it is much smoother without bug 965593. Tapas, can you please retest with a high speed camera. Thanks!
Flags: needinfo?(mchang) → needinfo?(tkundu)
Going to close because I'm pretty sure the backout of that bug is going to fix this. If Tapas's testing proves otherwise, then reopen.
