It has been established today that Marge is failing to run in batch mode for some reason which means it takes at least as long as CI takes to complete for each commit to be merged. The rate is about 4 commits/day with the current configuration. On Sat, Feb 2, 2019 at 7:57 PM Sebastian Graf wrote:

All the other flavours should be run once the commit reaches master.

Thoughts?

That's even better than my idea of only running them as nightlies. In favor!

This evening I have fixed the batch mode. For example: https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/merge_requests/302 Hopefully it should be smoother sailing now. Matt On Tue, Feb 5, 2019 at 7:36 PM Phyx wrote:

That aside, the CIs don't seem stable at all. Frequent timeouts even before they start. I have been trying to merge 3 changes for a while now and everytime one of them times out and I have to restart the timed out ones. Then there are merge conflicts and I have to start over.

This is "bot wackamole" :)

So, just checking: is the recommended route to merging now to use the Marge Bot instructions posted previously? (That is, get 1+ approvals and then assign to Marge.) Thanks, Richard

Indeed Marge was causing a remarkable amount of CI traffic, leading to long queues, and eventually build timeouts. Thankfully Matthew investigated why Marge's batch mode wasn't batching and consequently things should now be much better.

Sorry for the previous inconvenience!
