The runner was down trying to download a new version of the image, which was slower than normal, which created a backlog. But now it's downloaded, and the backlog should be processed in another ~20 minutes. Separately: We do unfortunately have quite a few spurious failures lately. NetBSD is the most common failing task, I think that really needs the upgrade to IPC::Run we've been talking about... But there are some others too. Greetings, Andres Freund
