             Summary: Configure Jenkins to wait less and allocate more
                 Key: OVIRT-2782
                 URL: https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/browse/OVIRT-2782
             Project: oVirt - virtualization made easy
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Daniel Belenky
            Assignee: infra


By default, Jenkins is configured to wait a few seconds before allocating a new 
node in a hope that a node in use to be freed. We can control this setting by 
setting `hudson.slaves.NodeProvisioner.initialDelay` to `0`. But, because 
Jenkins computes the excess workload value (which decides if we need to 
allocate a new node) using an EMA, we also can control it's margins to lower 
its threshold so that Jenkins will allocate nodes faster and in advance.

The recommended settings by the k8s plugin to spawn a node for every build in 
the queue:
