Not to derail the topic, but I wonder how many crashes would be more actionable if they were caught earlier by assertions. I believe Chrome Canary has assertions enabled for their testing audience. I don't know how pleasant this would be for Nightly users (like myself), since Nightly right now is usually pretty stable, but turning MOZ_ASSERT into MOZ_RELEASE_ASSERT (at build time) for a select audience would at least be easy to do.
Of course, having a mechanism to get a stack for assertions without actually crashing would be even better, though I don't know how we'd collect such information (Health Report?). That's bug 1209131. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
