*Chrome UI Jank Task Force Update*

The Chrome UI Jank Task Force is out to fix UI Jank and slowness in the
browser.  A list of open Jank bugs is here:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list?q=label:Jank (feel free to
take one!)

*Updates*

John

   - Finished up Mstone-4 bugs
   - All structures of Refcounted objects private -- cleaned up some things,
   and found some bugs.
   - Looked into how long it takes to create a render process from cold
   start (see multi-process histograms)
      - Win: 120ms first on average, 50ms subsequently
      - Linux: 1.2s! (3ms after that)  But NTP load time is less than that?
       Maybe Zygote-related.
      - Something seems to be off, investigating further.
      - John to cc agl and Dan K about this issue (they know Zygote)


Chase

   - Cookies on startup (cookies loading from disk for the NTP?).
    Understanding pipeline webkit -> renderer -> browser
   - Tab switching test only measuring whiteout duration, want to expand it
   to measure more.
   - Working with John on adding more measurements to this.


Tony

   - Theme.dll merged into chrome.dll (caused issues with icon for the app)
   -- didn't seem to affect startup time.
   - Working on mstone-4 crashers.


Evan

   - Landed the spellchecker -> renderer move on Linux.  This may have made
   memory tests flaky.
   - Should be minimal effort to move Win & Mac.  (Windows doesn't like to
   open files in the renderer - have to pass a handle)
   - Working on search engine prepopulate data & Linux bugs.
