What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?
I think this info is kind of outdated. When I want to add markers to my performance profile I always confuse console.timeStamp() and console.time() and console.timeEnd(). And it seems mdn is currently displaying the exact opposite as what is the actual current situation.
I'm not sure if adding markers to the profiler in Firefox still exists, I couldn't find any markers when recording on performance-panel-logging.glitch.me
Chrome seems to add markers for all of these functions, but there appears to be a bug that causes markers from console.timeStamp() to not render.
What did you expect to see?
Assuming that Chrome fixes this bug, I'd expect the pages from console.time() and console.timeEnd() to mention that in chrome markers are logged to the performance profile.
As for the console.timeStamp() page, I'd expect Firefox to be removed from the list of browsers that add markers to performance tools. Unless I'm missing something.
