Testing with installed release builds is about twice as fast. f:\dev\37>python -m test -ugui -j14 # Debug 32-bit 3.7 ... 0:03:51 [412/416] test_tarfile passed (56 sec 7 ms) -- running: test_multiprocessing_spawn (1 min 46 sec) 0:04:14 [413/416] test_weakref passed (37 sec 771 ms) -- running: test_multiprocessing_spawn (2 min 8 sec), test_venv (40 sec 188 ms), test_zipfile (31 sec 718 ms) 0:04:37 [414/416] test_zipfile passed (53 sec 631 ms) -- running: test_multiprocessing_spawn (2 min 31 sec), test_venv (1 min 3 sec) 0:04:43 [415/416] test_venv passed (1 min 8 sec) -- running: test_multiprocessing_spawn (2 min 37 sec) running: test_multiprocessing_spawn (3 min 7 sec) 0:05:31 [416/416] test_multiprocessing_spawn passed (3 min 25 sec) f:\dev\37>py -3.7 -m test -ugui -j14 # Installed 64-bit 3.7 ... 0:01:53 [412/416/2] test_urllib2_localnet passed -- running: test_multiprocessing_spawn (53 sec 953 ms), test_socket (39 sec 298 ms) 0:01:55 [413/416/2] test_socket passed (40 sec 929 ms) -- running: test_multiprocessing_spawn (55 sec 953 ms) 0:01:56 [414/416/2] test_zipfile passed -- running: test_multiprocessing_spawn (57 sec 141 ms) 0:02:11 [415/416/2] test_venv passed (37 sec 543 ms) -- running: test_multiprocessing_spawn (1 min 12 sec) 0:02:37 [416/416/2] test_multiprocessing_spawn passed (1 min 37 sec) My memory is that other things being equal, 32 bit should be faster than 64, but I presume you know more than I do. Doubling CI time would be painful. How often are buildbot failure due to the build or test-arg differences, as opposed to system differences? ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36215> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
