Thanks for the review, Jan! I have applied the optimizations on Jenkins slaves and from my initial testing the time required for pull request builds and normal CI builds went down roughly 35-40%. It's not as much as I expected but it is a noticeable improvement. Old typical el7 SSG build + validate times: 30-40 minutes. New typical el7 SSG build + validate times: 20-30 minutes. The next big optimization lies in getting better hardware for Jenkins. `make jenkins` takes 2m16.877s on my work laptop and 20+ minutes on the OS1 nodes. That is a huge difference. And my laptop can't be called a powerful machine, it's just a dual core i7 laptop. -- Martin Preisler Identity Management and Platform Security | Red Hat, Inc. -- SCAP Security Guide mailing list [email protected] https://lists.fedorahosted.org/admin/lists/[email protected] https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scap-security-guide/
