Yeah, it's a freebsd running on rpi4, from a USB flash disk, and in my experience it's much slower than rpi4 running Linux. I'm not sure why is that, never found a way to make it faster The machine already has: export PGCTLTIMEOUT=600 export PG_TEST_TIMEOUT_DEFAULT=600 I doubt increasing it further will do the trick. Maybe there's some other timeout that I should increase? FWIW I just moved the buildfarm stuff to a proper SSD disk (still USB, but hopefully better than the crappy flash disk). regards -- Tomas Vondra
