Shalok Shalom | In reply to @edef1c:matrix.org we literally can't afford to run two build farms side by side yeah, that is understandable. I would be tempted to care for that for the testing period. | 17:36:07 |
edef | that's more about build farm capacity than anything about perl, i think | 17:36:11 |
edef | i don't have stats on the build farm utilisation, maybe the infra team does | 17:36:31 |
Shalok Shalom | different opinions about that from different sides | 17:36:36 |
Shalok Shalom | I heard the word 'clusterfuck' 😃 | 17:37:01 |
edef | on priors i'd lean towards "we just don't have enough compute" rather than "we're leaving it idle", but talk is cheap, i'd love to see some data | 17:37:11 |
edef | like, broadly it's not very complicated, we (hopefully) have a Prometheus somewhere and a Grafana dash somewhere that can tell us this | 17:37:39 |
Shalok Shalom | I know there is a Grafana | 17:38:07 |
Shalok Shalom | didnt look into it too deep | 17:38:12 |

edef | the build scheduler definitely has issues, and we could do a lot better | 17:38:41 |
edef | i certainly have some prototype bits and pieces lying around for various parts of the stack, but none of that is productionised or tested at scale | 17:39:14 |
