Howdy, I just started a Parrot smoker on one machine in the compile farm. It is a 24-core 64 bit Linux 2.6.32 machine.
Firstly, the script updates a Parrot git repo with : git pull --rebase. Next, it compiles 16 different versions of Parrot with different Configure.pl flags (such as --optimize, --without-gmp, etc) and then runs "make smoke." Each test run takes about 1.5 minutes with TEST_JOBS=3. Then it sleeps for a half hour and does it all again. Forever. We now have a Parrot smoker. This is only the beginning. Please let me know what you would like to see smoked and what features you would like added.
