Summary Consider removing --pause-before-testing option

Reported 2012-12-17 21:10:38 PST
Now that we've added --profile option to run-perf-tests, do we still need --pause-before-testing? We added this option to help us attach profiler but it adds a lot of crafts to various parts in webkitpy.

(In reply to comment #1) > Completely up to you. :) Alright. Let's get rid of it. I'm planning to make a serious of improvements to run-perf-tests and not having to support it will considerably simplify the patch.

I would caution you that --profile is not currently designed to handle every possible iprofiler, etc. configuration, so if others are using --pause-before-testing for more exciting profiling, it may still have its uses.

I guess we can always restore it if someone complaints.

Comment on attachment 179882 [details] Cleanup I believe you can also remove Driver.start() as dpranke told me once it only existed for this option to perf-tests.

Comment on attachment 179883 [details] Also remove Driver.start This looks fine to me, but you should probably also have dpranke take a look, and probably give folks at least until tomorrow to give comments (since you announced it on webkit-dev). :)
