use sshfs to speed up publishing process ----------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-23017 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-23017 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Feature Request Components: build Affects Versions: 4.4.1.AM3 Reporter: Nick Boldt Assignee: Nick Boldt Fix For: 4.4.2.AM2 Currently, publishing from /snapshots to /staging and from /staging to /development requires that we fetch several GBs of data from filemgmt.jboss.org to a temp folder, then push those bits to a new folder on filemgmt.jboss.org. If we could simply copy bits over sshfs, the process might be a lot faster than these times: {code} JBT coretests 1.1G: 59m20 JBT core 1.2G: 64m23 devstudio (copy from filemgmt to filemgmt) 2.4G: 2h13 devstudio (copy from local to www.qa) 3.1G: 6mins(?) {code} To make this work, however, we need more slaves to have sshfs installed. Currently, it appears that only dev01 [1] is so equipped. And that slave, currently, has a build queue more than 170 jobs long, making it impractical to even TEST publishing over sshfs.
