hi Benjamin has a point, it's not only CPU that is used, also disk access
if you only have to 'write' the files of 1 project, that'll be fast but if the the write time of the disks has to be divided between 40 projects, there will be more time spent on overhead than on the actual writing. but if you have 64gig of memory, maybe you can make a ramdisk what should counter this effect http://memory.dataram.com/products-and-services/software/ramdisk with kind regards Ruben Willems On 4 July 2012 09:36, Benjamin Baumann <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > It depends on your project configuration too. > Some time ago, I wanted to split my big queue into smaller ones but I > rollbacked because multiple parallel builds in my server works slower than > a queue of builds. > > Finally, we kept 5 queues : > * the big one for IC ~160 projects > * config (monitoring the cc config) = 1 project > * Build and Deploy (we deploy our webservices/applications/services via > CC.NET) ~ 80 projects > * Stocked Proc Deploy (we deploy our SP via CC.NET too =) ) = 1 project > > Cheers, > Benjamin > > > 2012/7/3 Ruben Willems <[email protected]> > >> Hi >> >> normally it should work properly as you described, >> it all depends a bit on the configuration of course. >> >> For example : suppose you have 8 servers, and all those servers have 5 >> projects in 1 queue >> --> a total of 40 projects >> >> if you would just merge it into 1 big server, but still keep the 1 queue, >> it would be slower. >> Reason, there is only 1 queue, so there can be only 1 project building at >> a time. >> and 1 project building is 1 thread, and that is not shared among CPU's. >> >> even if the cpu's themselve are faster, 1 build would be faster, but the >> whole picture (40 projects average time) >> would be a lot slower. >> >> So also update your config accordingly >> >> >> >> >> with kind regards >> Ruben Willems >> >> >> >> On 3 July 2012 19:24, Sebastinator <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> In other words, if i setup a server with 8 cpus and 32 gigs of RAM, will >>> it be the same thing as 8 different servers with 1 cpu and 4 gigs of RAM? >>> If I merge all our integration servers into a Big one, will it works >>> properly using all the available ressources (CPU) ? >>> >>> >>> >>> Le mardi 3 juillet 2012 11:20:27 UTC-4, Sebastinator a écrit : >>> >>>> Hi, >>>> >>>> I want to migrate our CCNETservers from 2003 to 2008 version. >>>> Is there any compatibility issues? >>>> >>>> And I need to know of the ccservice.exe supports 4 or more CPUs? >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> Thanks! >>> >>> >> >
