The reason to use 3 days for retention is convenience. If your build job fails on Friday, you can still retry it on Monday. Retries are currently relevant in Pulsar builds since there's a high number of flaky tests and retries are used so that flaky tests don't block progress. When a developer encounters a flaky test, it should always be checked whether it has already [been reported as a GitHub issue](https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues?q=is%3Aopen+flaky+sort%3Aupdated-desc). If not, the developer [should report it](https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues/new/choose). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
