# HG changeset patch # User Matt Mackall # Date 1449270320 21600 # Node ID b4d7743e174a987027f4cdd15355e1279d6ceffe # Parent a40b623e63807c2e71452795e5ca529c6c66f744 run-tests: add more scheduling weight hints The scheduler would like to order test execution by expected run-time, but doesn't know much about how long a test will run. It thus uses test size as a proxy for run-time. By tweaking these weights we can keep CPUs more evenly busy and thus finish sooner. In particular, this change pushes the three currently longest-running tests closer to the beginning: test-largefiles-update.t test-run-tests.t test-gendoc.t As the largefiles test is currently the long pole of the test suite with higher -j factors, the sooner it's started, the sooner the tests can end. We also up the weight on some shorter but long-running tests that could have previously delayed completion with low -j factors by running very close to the end. diff -r a40b623e6380 -r b4d7743e174a tests/run-tests.py --- a/tests/run-tests.py Fri Dec 04 14:55:10 2015 -0600 +++ b/tests/run-tests.py Fri Dec 04 17:05:20 2015 -0600 @@ -1744,8 +1744,15 @@ else: # keywords for slow tests slow = {b'svn': 10, - b'gendoc': 10, - b'check-code-hg': 100, + b'cvs': 10, + b'hghave': 10, + b'largefiles-update': 10, + b'run-tests': 10, + b'corruption': 10, + b'race': 10, + b'i18n': 10, + b'check': 100, + b'gendoc': 100, b'contrib-perf': 200, } def sortkey(f):
