Hey all,

The build peers are looking to change the way that nightlies are created on Mac 
as we switch to cross-compilation. Specifically, we're looking at stripping the 
nightlies to avoid an as-of-yet undiagnosed performance discrepancy vs native 
builds[1], but also to make the nightly configuration match what we ship on 
beta/release (stripped).

Of course, stripping removes the symbols, and while we believe we have a 
solution for re-acquiring symbols that works for the Gecko Profiler, we realize
that people out there may be using other profiling tools.

If you profile on Mac, now is your chance to speak up. What other profiling 
tools do you use that we should be aware of?

cheers,
