we currently have 166 builds competing to build on 6 build executors (I think). The majority of these are non Hadoop-related builds, so are actually competing for just 4 of those executors, 2 executors per machine on 2 VMs. There's a good chance many of the problems stem from load. > Won't adding more machines just mean more slaves get stuck in this mess? > > Isn't the right fix to fix projects to... for lack of a better word... suck? maybe _not_ suck? ;) Would you prefer if we gathered more evidence first? --j.
