Re: Reverting to VS2013 on central and aurora

Well, I think that's debatable ;) The Athlon XP had clock speeds of up to 2333MHz, though I'm sure the per-clock performance doesn't measure up to current offerings. But Ion can easily be 5x as fast as Baseline. Of course, whether that makes a difference depends on what JS you're running. But ei

Re: Reverting to VS2013 on central and aurora

SSE2 is also required for IonMonkey, our optimizing JIT. The baseline compiler does work without SSE2, but isn't nearly as fast. So users running Firefox on hardware without SSE2 support are already getting severely degraded performance. On Friday, May 6, 2016 at 10:59:01 PM UTC+2, Milan Sreckov

Re: Status: ASan builds on Windows

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 i

Nice, I like the new terminal. When I try to run |./mach mercurial-setup| from m-c tip, it gives me the following error after pressing enter: "WindowsError: [Error 193] %1 is not a valid Win32 application File "c:\Users\Emanuel\firefox\mozilla-central\tools/mercurial/mach_commands.py", line

Another example of a project that extends or reimplements much of the STL to suit the developer's needs, which might provide inspiration here, is 'nall' by byuu, author of the emulation platform higan. Though the library itself is poorly documented, it is heavily based on C++11 and byuu has a te
