Meeting Minutes

Using User Timing at scale

Dan: working on React.. CDT integration was great
… there is no way for a library to tell if user is recording or not, we're afraid of wasting memory
… we're calling clearmarks/measures all the time, but it means we can't harvest it later
… our main target is CDT
… i.e. in dev mode

an example -> https://‌facebook.github.io/‌react/‌docs/‌optimizing-performance.html#profiling-components-with-chrome-timeline

a) sounds like there is a need for API in devtools for in "record mode"

b) you should log some data to performance timeline.. perhaps with lower fidelity

Nic: we monitor React today, we look at routechange events

Dan: we expose UT for every component in dev mode
