Hi,
We were discussing build and test times on the IRC and one suggestion was to get information around tests and how much time its taking .
Attached is a script used to run the tests and the final csv in descending order that gives you the tests and the time taken . Most of the time is taken by the installs . I've also included the csv which has errors when I ran these tests. These were run on a Centos 6 VM.
This experiment didn't seem to use the nearest mirror. So for the next run, added the local mirror and the results are in the csv - "sorted_test_times_3_descending.csv"
Suggestions to make this better would be great as well .
thanks,
Mamu

The massive times for yum install ops are almost certainly down to i/o on the VM's doing the testing and bandwidth available to pull packages down.
Over the next few days, I am going to try and get a better setup in place in a single location that runs the tests behind ci.dev.centos.org - lets see if we can atleast reduce some of the i/o and bandwidth bottlenecks.
The overall run time apart from the install operations seems to be well under 4 minutes, which should be acceptable at this point.
