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_MEMORY on 2019-10-05 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_MEMORY's definition.

You can do this!

Your Friendly, Neighbourhood Firefox Telemetry Team
