What to do about this:

1. File a bug to track your investigation. You can just copy this email into the bug Description to get you started.
2. Reply-All to this email to let the list know that you are investigating. Include the bug number so we can help out.
3. Triage the alert. You can find instructions here: https://docs.telemetry.mozilla.org/tools/alerts.html#triaging-a-telemetry-alert-email

If you have any problems, please ask for help on the #telemetry IRC channel or on Slack in #fx-metrics. We'll give you a hand.

What this is:
We have a system called cerberus[1] that compares Telemetry collected on different Nightly builds and looks for sudden changed in value distributions using the Bhattacharyya Distance[2]. It found such a change in HYPHENATION_LOAD_TIME on 2019-11-13 so it asked its buddy medusa[3] to send this email to the dev-telemetry-alerts mailing list and to all email addresses listed in the alert_emails field of HYPHENATION_LOAD_TIME's definition.

You can do this!

Your Friendly, Neighbourhood Firefox Telemetry Team

No investigation needed; this is exactly the expected result of bug
1590167. Both HYPHENATION_LOAD_TIME and HYPHENATION_MEMORY will drop to
near-zero (the telemetry change will be a bit noisy because the patch
landed, was backed out, and re-landed across around three days' worth of
Nightlies).
