Regression testing results.

Just a quick note for those eagerly awaiting new regression test results. There's now a "backup" set of results at the beta web site <http://beta.boost.org/development/testing.html>. The updating may be a bit rocky at first as I get the cronjobs all working correctly.

Thanks, Rene! That's very helpful. --Beman

How often do you run the update? I've got a Ubuntu machine I'd be willing to dedicate to running rapid-cycle tests. But it doesn't make sense to cycle the tests more often than you are updating the results. Thanks, --Beman

The rate depends on how long regression testing takes plus how long building the results takes. The machine I run this on is the same Ubuntu machine I run the gcc-4.1.2 and gcc-4.2.1 incremental tests on. Currently, overall the cycle is about *two hours* as seen from <http://beta.boost.org:8081/Boost_HEAD/Dashboard/> (look at the RSI Droid entries). Looking at the timestamps on my log files it looks like the time is split evenly between the two parts. So my 1.6Ghz+2.5Gig machine builds the results in about an hour. Hence if we want faster result reporting we either move the result building to another equivalent machine, or move it to a faster machine :-) -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo

I realize it's beta and maybe a little slower than we would like, but maybe we should go ahead and point the main site here...at least we can see something new instead of Sept 3... Jeff
