Is it expected that these would take 2 hours to run? Should we set policy for the ASF hudson instance regarding the max runtime of builds, seeing as we only have 4 build executor slots? --j.

That would be good, though we may want to allow longer builds that only run relatively seldom (e.g. weekly). BR, Jukka Zitting
Re: Hudson administrivia, build timeout
Many thanks Justin!
I think there's something funky with the Bugzilla Plugin config.
Our Jira issues are being broken into 2 links now. Example,
MAPREDUCE-693 is broken into
1) MAPREDUCE- links to Jira issue
2) 693 links to bugzilla

We tried the build timeout before, I think, and it didn't help. But I
think some of the timeouts we're seeing now are due to broken tests on
some projects, and we've upgraded Hudson itself since the last try, so
it's worth a retry in my opinion.
I also checked the recent Hudson changelog, but nothing relevant has
been
implemented that would fix build hangs.
Anyway, if your project has had problems with build hangs, please
enable a
timeout on the "Configure" page. It's about halfway down, in the
"Build
Environment" section -- tick the '[x] Abort the build if it's stuck'
tickbox and set 'Timeout minutes' to a sane upper limit.
If we run into builds of your projects timing out, we'll set this
for you. ;)
--j.

If I recall, the Harmony builds take a long time. Nige
