Maybe. It certainly is not a test people will use during development. But if it can detect some hard-to-find errors in the code, that might possibly lead to serious problems, then +1 from me to run them at least on one animal. 500 hours is ~3 weeks, which is not that bad IMHO. Also, once you know where it fails the developer can run just that single test (which might take minutes/hours, but not days). > If we really want to run this in the buildfarm we should probably > try to create a massively cut down test schedule for use in this > case. If we can run cut this down in a meaningful way (i.e. without sacrificing most of the benefits) then sure - let's do that. But I think that's what CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS is about. regards Tomas -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
