It /might/ be the price of durability, since in Pipeline each steps is serialized/checkpointed and sent from the master to somewhere to run on. This enables it to restart in case of crash for instance, which build flow can't do at all. And that price is probably more visible if each step basically does nothing.
Also, you should be aware that Build Flow is deprecated de facto. His creator abandoned it, and it gave many good feedbacks to design Pipeline. And the last current maintainer I knew also abandoned it a few months ago. 2017-02-13 20:02 GMT+01:00 Chris Overend <chris.over...@vectorcast.com>: > I am not trying to say anything I just found it curious. > We are doing testing to determine the optimal setup for Jenkins. > We currently use flows calling flows. > We believe we have too many builds in the build queue (3500). > > In the process of testing we saw this behavior and I was hoping for > insight. > We have seen the more builds we do the less efficient pipeline became. > going from 1500 builds to 2000 builds the pipeline took twice as long. > > At 3500 builds > > - pipeline - 23 mins > - flow - 8 min > > So how does this become negligible if the jobs are doing work? > Does this overhead disappear? > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Jenkins Users" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to jenkinsci-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/ms > gid/jenkinsci-users/d3dfdfd4-e5df-48e4-9aec-a11552c7040f% > 40googlegroups.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/jenkinsci-users/d3dfdfd4-e5df-48e4-9aec-a11552c7040f%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
