The exact circumstances of how this is showing up in the wild aren't
clear - there seem to be a couple of ways we can get here. However it
all revolves around early shutdowns (i.e., from the select profile popup)
- before the StartupCache is ever initialized. In any case, the solution
shouldn't change based on the exact circumstances - if we don't have a
StartupCache, there's no need to write one. Also, don't bother lazy
initializing it if it doesn't exist yet.

Reordering the mWrittenOnce check should be sufficient to eliminate
the data race; however, I made mWrittenOnce an atomic just to reduce
the fragility of this since it is intended to be written from and
read to on multiple threads.

The initial thought for getting the StartupCache out of the shutdown
path was to simply not write it during shutdown, as it should write
60 seconds after startup, and the theory was that if the user shut
down within the first 60 seconds of use, they were likely updating or
something and it shouldn't matter. However, considering how many of
our users only ever open one tab, I think it's rather likely that
users are starting up firefox to go to a web site, then closing it
when done with that website, and then maybe opening up a new instance
in order to go to a different website. Accordingly it still makes
sense to continue writing it. However, we may as well leverage a
background thread for this and get it kicked off earlier during
shutdown, so we don't sit there blocking in the destructor late
during shutdown.

resulting breakage was fixed up by hand. The manual fixups did either
revert the changes done by the script, replace a generic header with a more

In bug 1550108 we added a thread to prefetch the contents of the
startup cache file, and as part of that we reduced its stack size
and the stack size of the thread which writes the file. However
it seems we set the write thread's stack size too low.

I am not aware of anything that depends on StartupCache being a
zip file, and since I want to use lz4 compression because inflate
is showing up quite a lot in profiles, it's simplest to just use
a custom format. This loosely mimicks the ScriptPreloader code,
with a few diversions:
- Obviously the contents of the cache are compressed. I used lz4
for this as I hit the same file size as deflate at a compression
level of 1, which is what the StartupCache was using previously,
while decompressing an order of magnitude faster. Seemed like
the most conservative change to make. I think it's worth
investigating what the impact of slower algs with higher ratios
would be, but for right now I settled on this. We'd probably
want to look at zstd next.
- I use streaming compression for this via lz4frame. This is not
strictly necessary, but has the benefit of not requiring as
much memory for large buffers, as well as giving us a built-in
checksum, rather than relying on the much slower CRC that we
were doing with the zip-based approach.
- I coded the serialization of the headers inline, since I had to
jump back to add the offset and compressed size, which would
make the nice Code(...) method for the ScriptPreloader stuff
rather more complex. Open to cleaner solutions, but moving it
out just felt like extra hoops for the reader to jump through
to understand without the benefit of being more concise.
