Funny . . . and thread on this from someone else just finished up. The answers to your questions are Yes and Yes.
Frank From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Mandeville, Rob Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2013 4:48 AM To: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com Subject: Priority Sorter - High or Low? I'm using the priority sorter plugin, and getting confused. The page for the plugin at https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Priority+Sorter+Plugin says that "A priority of 50 comes before a priority of 100", so a lower priority number is a higher priority. When I look at the source, PrioritySorterQueueSorter.java runs the compare in reverse order, complete with a comment stating "Note that we sort these backwards because we want to return higher-numbered items first". When I tried launching jobs of different priorities from the Web UI, they ran in launch order, apparently ignoring the priority sorter plugin. When I ran a build that launches sub-builds of different priorities via "trigger parameterized builds on other projects", they got launched but required a label that was completely in uses, so they got queued. The four jobs with priority 100 launched before the one with priority 90. Am I correct in assuming that, if two jobs are waiting on an executor on a node or label, the one with the higher priority number will get in first? And if that is the case, should somebody edit the wiki for the plugin?
