We're hitting widespread "application ran for longer than allowed maximum time" failures on mochitests and reftests. Time for more chunks. Geoff, I assume the story is the same for 4.3 as 2.3?
I think 4.3 is currently better than 2.3 -- I don't see "application ran for longer than allowed maximum time" on 4.3 Opt on try. But maybe that is because we are not running as many 4.3 jobs (ie, only on try), or maybe we are just close to the threshold and luckily avoiding it. Regardless, 4.3 and 2.3 times are generally quite similar in my experience, so I think it is best to increase the chunks on 4.3 the same as 2.3.
X2/X3 are typically running in 80+ minutes too as well.
And robocop is in the 60-70 minute range. Maybe we should adjust all the chunks at once.
Today, 4.3 R12 is often exceeding the 60 minute timeout.

Let's try this, applied exactly the same on 2.3 and 4.3: total-chunks (before) | total-chunks (after) ------------------------------------------------------------ xpcshell 3 | 6 mochitest 16 | 20 robocop 4 | 8 reftest 16 | 20 jsreftest 6 | 8 I am tempted to increase reftest and mochitest to 24 chunks, but am hesitant to introduce *too* many new jobs all at once.
:jmaher -- Are changes to --total-chunks a concern to SETA? Will it adjust "automatically"?
Flags: needinfo?(jmaher)
gbrown, it doesn't adjust automatically, but it will find the chunk with the correct failure if one of them fails going forward. Overall it does reduce the effectiveness of SETA, but in reality it shouldn't cause any problems!

Comment on attachment 8598319 [details] [diff] [review] Update Android test chunks - mozilla-central changes I notice that --total-chunks is defined in both mozharness and m-c configs. I will look into removing the redundancy in another bug. :kmoir -- Can you help land these? I think we want to get the buildbot changes into production first, then get the mozharness and m-c changes landed on all trees asap.

:ryanvm -- These patches are ready for check-in, but the landing is tricky. The buildbot patch needs a reconfig; after the reconfig, new jobs like mochitest-17 will fail until the mozharness patch is checked in and mozharness is bumped and the mozilla-central patch is checked in. Please advise...or make it happen!
Flags: needinfo?(ryanvm)
I think rail is looking to do a reconfig soon. If you get them landed ASAP, I can take care of the mozharness side.

Backed out. The buildbot-configs change broke: "AssertionError: tst-linux64-ec2-018 has 4368 builders; limit is 4084" http://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbot-configs/rev/5fd4cf62d3b3 http://hg.mozilla.org/build/mozharness/rev/8ded7a95435e

Here's a temporary measure to avoid test failures while we wait for a more permanent solution to job capacity: Increase the maximum job wait for Android tests from 60 minutes to 75 minutes. https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=59c2c12fcd07 - notice the green 4.3 R12s.

Increasing the Android job timeout to 75 minutes seems effective. We need to come back to this in future to increase chunks and backout 75514dac86e9.

Recall that we previously increased the default Android test job timeout from 60 minutes to 75 minutes, since we could not increase the number of chunks. We are hitting frequent 75 minute timeouts now, for Android 2.3 mochitest-9 (bug 1160010). I am still reluctant to try to increase chunks until efforts like Android debug reftests are sorted out. So again, as a temporary measure, I propose the least-worst solution I see: Increase the timeout from 75 minutes to 90 minutes.
