Description

Stop bad results on first memory benchmark run The first memory system-health story ran in a set has been reporting memory use differently all subsequent runs. This is due to how we flush the system caches. Just before we measure memory we flush the system caches unfortunately this doesn't immediately take effect, instead the next story run is effected. Due to this the first story run has anomalous results. This option causes us to flush caches each time before Chrome starts so we effect even the first story - avoiding the bug. *************** Note to Perf Sheriff **************** Regressions across several memory metrics are expected for system_health.memory_mobile, system_health.memory_desktop and memory.top10_mobile as we stop under counting memory use. ***************************************************** BUG=chromium:671156 CQ_INCLUDE_TRYBOTS=master.tryserver.chromium.perf:linux_perf_cq;master.tryserver.chromium.perf:mac_retina_perf_cq Review-Url: https://codereview.chromium.org/2589173004 Cr-Commit-Position: refs/heads/master@{#443273} Committed: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/3afb7e7da06df087b3e9fac2ae68593f75a051ed
