Continuous Integration
talos performance tests all performance tests displayed in treeherder are run using the talos framework, and denoted by the letter t.
... talos is used to execute several suites for desktop firefox and firefox for android; these suites are denoted using lower-case letters, e.g., t(c d g1 o s tp).
... the talos indicators in treeherder appear green if the job successfully completed; to see the performance data generated by the jobs, click on the performance tab of the job details panel that pops up when you click on a job in treeherder.

Gecko Profiler FAQ
probably by using talos, especially if you want to measure and not profile.
... you can make your own talos pageload test which has just the one page that you’re interested in in its manifest.

Profiling with the Gecko Profiler and Local Symbols on Windows
profiling local talos runs if you would like to use the gecko profiler with a local talos run of a local build of firefox for windows, you will need to point talos to a zipfile containing breakpad-style symbols for your build.
... generate the breakpad symbol files by running ./mach buildsymbols: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/building_firefox_with_debug_symbols#breakpad_symbol_files this will have created symbols under $objdir/dist/ , named after the binary name, architecture and version, so something like "firefox-40.0a1.en-us-win32.crashreporter-symbols.zip" point talos to this zipfile by passing its path to the --symbolspath flag.
