On Thursday night, after the all-hands party, Matt Woodrow landed a beautiful refactoring of our texture upload code. This should give a noticeable improvement in scrolling performance when accelerated layers are enabled and hopefully fixes some of the problems people were seeing there. It also improves texture upload performance on OS X.
Unfortunately, there are still two bugs that are keeping us from enabling accelerated layers by default:
Bug 619615 - Hangs on Nexus One
Bug 619539 - Startup crashes on Droid
Any help debugging these problems would be greatly appreciated.

The links both go to the same bug (the first).
Here's a crash report on the Nokia N900 when enabling layers.accelerate-all

Enabled by defualt on Maemo (n900)? The blocking bugs are for Android...
Well, not really working on the n900 either (at least not beta, I have not ried the nightly). Fennec crashes on startup since I enabled HW acceleration.
Lars: I haven't had a chance to look at Fennec on Maemo too much yet so I'm not sure what its status is.
