Dana Keeler 51ad07b3b9 Bug 1705360 - "hide" NSS DBs from meddling third party software r=jschanck,bbeurdouche,perftest-reviewers,sparky
Some crash reports appear to be indicating that initializing NSS' certificate
and key databases is taking on the order of minutes in some cases, which is
unexpected. One hypothesis is that third-party software is opening these DBs at
the same time that NSS is operating on them, causing contention and thus
slowness. This patch experimentally (in Nightly only) renames these DBs in the
hopes that third-party software might not recognize them as the DBs it's
looking for, and will thus leave them alone.

README

Talos is a python performance testing framework that is usable on Windows,
Mac and Linux. Talos is our versatile performance testing framework we
use at Mozilla. It was created to serve as a test runner for the existing
performance tests that Mozilla was running back in 2007 as well as providing
an extensible framework for new tests as they were created.

So, why Talos? Talos is the bronze automaton of Greek myth. Talos protected
the island of Crete, throwing giant boulders at unwary seamen. He's
also purported to have heated himself glowing hot and then embraced his
enemies. Basically, he was awesome.
