Subject: bug#43773: guix offload scheduler/load balancer throttles itself
Date: Fri, 02 Oct 2020 23:05:20 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <875z7sm2kv.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
Hello,
Guix offload monitors the load of the offload machine, and waits
patiently until the load comes back down below a pre-determined level
(normalized 2.0 level, it seems) before starting the next build, even
when there is a single offload build machine involved. This is
inefficient and causes it to throttle itself.
Idea of an improvement: it should choose the offload machine with the
less load (already the case, I believe), and not block waiting for the
load to go down before starting a build.
Maxim
