Why not just have three columns, one per platform? <br> <br> I wouldn't worry about the perf numbers, I'd just indicate whether it was up or down compared with last time.. if it's within a certain range, consider it identical and don't mention it.

The spin buttons are probably not needed though, we already know that yellow is "build running" ;-) What I’m missing there is the more detailed data we see on tinderbox waterfall (i.e. exact times of build starts, relation to checkins, test/perf results, download links, etc.) – but that could all be added with overlayed on-click-displayed boxes like we have on the "L" links on regular tinderbox waterfall displays.

Much much better than the current tinderbox setup!

The little spinner is a bit unclear -- is it waiting for data to load or the build to finish?<br> <br> Click-to-expand on the Talos/Unit Test/Perf bubbles would be sweet (so you can drill down and see how many tests failed) Very awesome.

Click-to-expand on the Talos/Unit Test/Perf bubbles would be sweet (so you can drill down and see how many tests failed)
