 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 |
| edef | i would be quite surprised if we are below 50% utilisation and have the capacity to run a second, identical workload | 17:39:41 |
| Shalok Shalom | yeah, I see that | 17:39:59 |
| Shalok Shalom | didnt intend to say, we should double the workload, just consider the testing in general | 17:40:26 |
| Shalok Shalom | I feel like sticking to something, just because its sticky, is also not worth necessarily | 17:40:48 |
| Shalok Shalom | * I feel like sticking to something, just because its sticky, is also not worth it. | 17:41:02 |
| edef | hmm, these dashes don't give me a lot of information directly, i'd have to actually work on building a decent model | 17:41:03 |

hmm, these dashes don't give me a lot of information directly, i'd have to actually work on building a decent model oh, that would be lovely | 17:41:28 |
| Shalok Shalom | you mean a model that is representative of the actual workload, yes? | 17:41:45 |
| edef | all in all, Hydra is pretty Lindy, we've been running it for far over a decade now | 17:41:58 |
