Nadav Goldin commented on OVIRT-620: ------------------------------------ The patch is not needed as gerrit was upgraded. For future reference: we can reduce load if we will move to git shallow clone(supported in recent versions of Jenkins git plugin). > Optimize how Jenkins fetchs ovirt-engine from gerrit > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OVIRT-620 > URL: https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/browse/OVIRT-620 > Project: oVirt - virtualization made easy > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Nadav Goldin > Assignee: infra > > ovirt-engine git repository is at the time of writing is of size 244MB, where > ovirt-engine/.git alone takes 160MB. > There are two things which might be done: > 1. Find a way to optimize ovirt-engine.git/.git size, this needs to be > explored deeply. > 2. Check if it is possible to configure git plugin to not download the entire > history, although Jenkins attempts to optimize that, it still looks like the > git plugin is downloading the entire history(this is what a random check on > the slaves using du ../jenkins/workspace/...../.git -h -s showed) > for instance the following command takes only 91Mb: > {quote}git clone --depth 1 --branch master {quote} > Although this will not solve real network/storage issues, it could help > reduce those problems and in the overall decrease jobs runtime. As Gerrit is > still on AWS, this is a considerable amount of traffic for each job we might > be able to reduce. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v1000.253.3#100011) _______________________________________________ Infra mailing list Infra@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/infra
