I think we need to start thinking how to make PGO opt-in instead of
opt-out, while keeping performance where it is now.

I have a really basic question. Is PGO's performance gains something users are actually going to notice or are we mostly talking about synthetic benchmark pissing contests here? What's PGO's impact on start-up time or new window time or the loading of a Twitter or Facebook web page?

I've also seen over the years that we have a really difficult time diagnosing and fixing some high profile crashes because of PGO and if we can eliminate those or make them easier to diagnose and fix and all it costs us is a some points on Sunspider, I'm wondering if it doesn't make sense to just drop PGO and focus on finding performance wins elsewhere.
