I am very appreciative that we can use Travis for free, but I doubt they care much one way or the other how we parallelize. Everything is sandboxed enough that we should not be able to cause problems for them or other customers. It's all CPU seconds to them (or should be, anyway). The thing that _would_ probably bother them is throwing too many builds at it (right now we are building the integration branches; it would be useful information to build individual topics, too, but that would increase the number of CPU seconds we ask them for). -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
