Hi,
Houston, we have a problem.
The 209 recently added B.S tests apparently result in ~20MB binaries each for gcc-3.x compilers. For me this means that the nests will need ~20GB more disk space. All the other tests with all compilers I'm testing for together take ~10GB.
This is not only slightly unbalanced, it also came as a surprise to me when I suddenly saw the unexpected disk full errors. Why does this kind of things always happen so short before a release?
Please, everyone, if you do something that will have serious impact on the tests being run, please, notify the testers in advance. (I still think we should have a separate list for regression test related stuff, btw.)
I don't recall ever seeing the suggestion before. I'd be happy to set it up. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
