Hi,
I was trying to fire some regression builds on very minor patches today,
and noticed (always known, but faced pain of 'waiting' today) that we
can fire regression build on only one patch (or a patchset if its
submitted with dependency added while submitting). And each regression
run takes approx 30mins.
With this model, we can at max take only ~45 patches in a day, which
won't scale up if we want to grow with more people participating in code
contribution. Would be great to have an option to submit regression run
with multiple patch numbers, (technically they should be applicable one
top of other in any order if not dependent), and it should work fine.
That way, we can handle more review load in future.
I'd rather see more build machines (multiple VMs on a big build.gluster.org replacement box?) instead to get more concurrency.
We already face that ambiguity when a patch has a dependent patch. Multiple VMs will solve the problem, but I guess we need to figure out how to get a bigger box etc.
