On each server we fit 6 jenkins executors, increasing our ci-cassandra.a.o executor count by 42 ! (60 new, minus 18 old executors from Instaclustr now removed). This raises our executor count from 98 to 140, and means NetApp's donation is currently running 30% of the project's CI resources ! This is a big deal for the project, adding both stability and improved throughput of CI for the community. https://github.com/apache/cassandra-builds/blob/trunk/ASF-jenkins-agents.md<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/apache/cassandra-builds/blob/trunk/ASF-jenkins-agents.md__;!!Nhn8V6BzJA!QWl72TiR8EWXFyRiWX0SL4hL4GFyVQRub2WDuYurIfmdxdMrBEkfKLM8T0ouB1nL7WTojww5okE32j2otdE$> A very big thank you to NetApp, and to all our contributors employed there to help make this happen. -- Dmitry Konstantinov
