Right, it's much more complete than any other build bot. But taking nearly a day to run one cycle is too long. I'd like to think even our most complete tests should be able to be done in 3 hours max, preferably 1-2 hours. My suggestion for quick sanity checks was with the idea that those can always be completed in 15-30 minutes. The point of this is at least partially to hedge our bets about being able to achieve the above. If we have fast but simple tests that finish in less than an hour, then I don't think it would be a huge deal if the complete tests took 6 hours. > The recent issue was with serf suddenly requiring a recent scons version > that isn't part of OpenBSD 5.3. I've fixed that today by updating scons. Thanks.
