Hi, I just pushed this to github to see how it would behave. In case anyone is curious, the run is here, https://github.com/alvherre/postgres/actions/runs/26591496806 Overall I get the impression that it's much slower than Cirrus. 20 minutes in, only the two "Linux - Meson" build finished, in 14 and 17 minutes respectively. Macos took 10 minutes just for the macports install! Cirrus completed the same build in 18:32, https://cirrus-ci.com/build/4817054382948352 If I read the Github docs correctly, I get 2000 run minutes for free each month. That would mean I can run at most some ... 15 runs per month? That sounds quite limiting. I hope we allow self-hosted runners at some point; I have quite a bit of spare CPU capacity at home that I could run the Linux and CompilerWarnings tasks on, leaving the Github machines to run only the macOS and Windows ones. -- Álvaro Herrera Breisgau, Deutschland — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/ "I'm impressed how quickly you are fixing this obscure issue.
