We already run the code paths that were breaking 8 or more times. Hundreds of times in fact for some :(. The odds of a broken path triggering after it gets through, assuming each time we exercise it is equally likely to show it, are roughly 3/times-exercised-in-landing. E.g. if we run a code path 300 times and it doesn't show up, then it's quite possible that it has a 1% incidence rate. -Rob -- Robert Collins <rbtcoll...@hp.com> Distinguished Technologist HP Converged Cloud _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
