Thanks for the feedback. I'll look into headspin. I'm not into mobile performance or testing so not sure how I would automate and log the performance on different devices. Honestly I'm not sure what tools I would use on the device to run the tests.

We run functional UI tests with a performance tracer wired up- we already had them setup by feature teams so it was easy to get started. Instead of a Zookeeper scheduler, it’s just Jenkins.
Right now we’ve been able to catch 2-3% relative regressions in things like startup, opening a Google Maps view etc which is pretty good. It was easy to setup and then hard to optimize the variance down so we could get a strong signal.
We’re hiring if any of this is interesting, it’s Golang/San Francisco/Full-Time.
