CompileFarm and reghunt Was: GCC 4.2.0 Status Report (2007-04-15)


We're a bit "short" on the current CompileFarm machines,
we have 5x16GB + 4x32GB (and as shown below it tends to
be used, I have to ping users from time to time to get GB
back :).

There is enough cpu power in the farm to build and check a version for
each commit (all languages including Ada) on up to two branches (I sent
a message a while ago about that) with a latency of about 8 hours IIRC.

We might be able to store only part of the compiler, or if this
proves really useful, I could just add a storage unit to the
farm with cheap & large current generation disks (machines are
unfortunately SCSI based).

As announced a few weeks ago, all official releases are already
installed on the CompileFarm (/n/b01/guerby/release/X.Y.Z/bin with X.Y.Z
in 3.4.6, 4.0.0-4, 4.1.0-2).

How to Get Involved ?
If you are a GCC developer and want access to the compileFarm for GCC
development and testing, or if you are a free software developer wishing
to set up automated testing of a piece of free software with the current
GCC development version (preferably with a test suite), please send 

     1. your ssh public key (HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys format) in
        attachment and not inline in the email and 
        
     2. your prefered UNIX login 

to laurent at guerby dot net.
