A lot of offers, these days! I'm thinking about moving the DCF server to an other machine which fulfills the flowing criteria as much as possible: - it has a lot of network bandwidth, since it is acting as a mediator between snapshot build machines and sourceforge File Release System: it accepts the builds from build servers and transfers them to SF FRS, so it is the most critical element regarding the bandwidth. - physical vicinity to the SF servers, at least on the same continent ;-) - a separate machine (or VM) from the snapshot build machine
The current DCF has a limited bandwidth: 7KB per second (rsync --bwlimit=7) and the same machine also runs all Intel based builds, as I already mentioned. An other goal I would like to achieve is to have a backup DCF server, which we could activate if the main goes out of business. So, the situation could be: - Dave's machine as the primary DFC server - Erik's cf-x86 machine as the backup DFC and amd64 (in the future also mingw64) build machine - roelof's machine as i386 and mingw32 build machine P.S.: FYI, Steven Borley offered me a Mac OS X i386 machine, which we will use for running regression tests. Universal Mac OS X builds including ppc and i386 binaries are already made on Mac OS X ppc machine. The new machine will be probably available in few months. > no Windows here.
