Hi, tldr: switching from ubuntu-latest to ubuntu-26.04-arm or ubuntu-26.04 will make things go faster
github CI is close to unuseable right now with ~7h queue times. Some of us did some investigating by crawling the API across all ASF projects and one finding was that a suspiciously low number of nodes was actually active while the queue was growing. After some testing it turned it this wasn't linked to the most plausible causes (number of physical boxes of a certain arch) but far more mundane: Concurrency limits are enforced by label... and ubuntu-latest is the label everyone is using. So switching from ubuntu-latest to ubuntu-26.04 (which is the same image) would be like another queue opening up at the grocery store. Anticipating that everyone is going to switch lanes now, i would suggest to switch most jobs to arm and leave the rest on x64. I hoped tactical waiting would pay off by not switching but it isn't working. I tested arm before for other reasons: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/9615 best regards, michael --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
