What is the appropriate number? Is there a buildbot config option that is missing, that is avoiding a purge of these files? Or does something "behind the scenes" need to take responsibility? I believe Infra is likely to start *enforcing* some duration and overall disk usage constraints. This likely won't impact us, as long as we purge old builds according to our desired retention. So I think the more important concern for our community is the question of "how many nightlies do we want to retain?" ... I suspect whatever answer will be fine, but finding an accepted consensus would be helpful. I'll lead with this stake-in-the-ground: ** retain one week of nightly builds Cheers, -g
