Ok so my quest for more reasonable build time comparisons is still going. I must be really bad at this... So I tried two new versions of the script, one which just took PA's longest buildarch time and SA's shortest buildarch time, however, the overall times summed up turned out to be way too favorable on our behalf. The latest version now sums up the buildarch times and divides them by how many of them there were. I think its a bit better because the faster builders with faster build times will pull up the slower build times, essentially its just an average calculation. The offset now for us looks like around 15 days (half a month slower)? Anyway, the page is the same. I still haven't filtered out our slowest builders from this list either so the number of days could probably go down if I did. Let me know if these numbers seem a bit more reasonable!

Don't be hard on yourself. I don't think this task is easy. Unfortunately for you (and me) I have the horrible ability to look at koji build stuff and know pretty closely whether it looks sane or not. This isn't your help, I just need to go and do something else :-P
At times as a programmer it's hard to see the forrest for the trees. We'll get there.

Interesting, that's currently probably about right with the current set of builders. When we go to just yosemite/rainer builders I think this will close out quite a bit which is why I'd be interested to see in particular the guru/smarttop devices removed (and even the cdot-panda* due to the nfs loopback because they're slow compared to the hsv-panda* with the local usb disk).

Looking good. It's interesting as it brings up some statistical wierdness even on mainline [1] so it just goes to show it's not just arm that has random builds :-)
Good work! Peter

BTW how hard would it be to add the two builders (hardfp/softfp) in a "notes" field at the end?
