…urn, report split balance Three faults measured on a Kubernetes clone of this pipeline. Jenkinsfile: - generateTestReports moves from cassandra-medium, the label of the ~460 test splits it queued behind, to cassandra-report: 109 minutes of a 163 minute build, for ~3 minutes of work - one ant junitreport per target, three at a time under an explicit -Xmx - size every `xargs -P` and `xz -T` from the container's cgroup quota. nproc answers for the node: 8 against a 2 cpu limit - record each cell's duration and longest suites, and archive them - test-burn takes 5 splits, which separates its three long classes - remove testDataPublishers as they were oom-ing ci-cassandra.a.o's controller https://the-asf.slack.com/archives/CK23JSY2K/p1787841152008959?thread_ts=1787836602.176469&cid=CK23JSY2K , and it was noise because of jenkinsci/test-stability-plugin#11 (we use butler instead) - three helpers out of test(..) for readability: recordCellTime, processResults, testScriptVars jenkins-deployment.yaml: - slaveConnectTimeout 600 and waitForPodSec 900, the two deadlines on one provisioning attempt. 30 seconds met only a warm node, and churned 1,110 pods in one 24 minute window with 0 agents connected and 483 `KubernetesProvisioningLimits ... went below zero` warnings - idleMinutes 5, a pod holding a whole node - the four instanceCaps to the demand a pre-commit run measured; containerCap to their sum, so no pool's share is decided by which holds its agents longest, and maxRequestsPerHostStr with it - add the agent-dind-report template, on a node pool of its own cell_balance.py: - new. Per target, how evenly its splits divided and what the worst cell ran, to the console and ci_summary.html. Splits stay round-robin, so the lever is the split count - guarded in generate-ci-summary.sh, never failing a build run-ci-test.py: - the fixture's node group maximums follow the raised caps patch by Mick Semb Wever; reviewed by Brandon Williams, Dmitry Konstantinov for CASSANDRA-21640 Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-opus-5
