Let me clarify that 1.5 hour time increase. That only applies if you want to run these new builds as 'advisory' or not impacting the final result of the build. The reason for the long time in this case is that jenkins has to run the 'must-pass' jobs first and then the 'advisory' builds serially. In my proposal above, the "wily armhf (any real phone hw)" and "wily i386" jobs would be advisory. I only proposed this as a solution to addressing the currently broken tests without blocking unrelated MPs that would fail if the tests were just turned on as 'must-pass'.
If all of these jobs are 'must-pass' then they can all be executed concurrently and build times would be the same as they are today assuming nothing else is building and nothing has to wait for resources.
