I'm very glad to see work being done to remove some of our redundant layout test results: http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/66124
I'm curious what the status of that work is. Do we expect all duplicates are gone now? or just chromium's?
The script as written was Chromium-agnostic (it uses the layout test fallback lists from the normal WebKit scripts). I think Tony just wasn't completely confident it was going to do the right thing so he was deleting only a subdirectory at a time. (Last week he found and fixed a bug in it: when you find duplicate results for platform A that falls back on platform C, you need to consider intermediate platform B's results.) If you have a WebKit build and some time to spare, you can try deleting the redundant tests for your platform that it suggests deleting and seeing if your platform still passes the tests to verify before checking in the deletes.
