[boost] Re: Another regression testing problem.

Hi,

I ran into another (small) problem with regression testing: Unpacking the tar-ball containing the XSL based reports takes approximately 1 hour on the (not very busy) SF shell server.

Yep, same here.

The tar-ball is only 60MB in size, but it contains ~24000 files, which could explain why it takes that long.

Is there any way to reduce the number of files?

Definitely. In particular, the test output pages don't need to be generated for the successful runs. It's already implemented for Boost-wide beta reports. We will try to back-port it within a few days. -- Aleksey Gurtovoy MetaCommunications Engineering
