What's wrong with this picture? http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_status.pl Notice how all the red is at the bottom of the report? That's because all the Windows machines are at the bottom, indicating that they haven't reported recently. AFAICT, snake is the only Windows machine that actually runs the buildfarm on a regular schedule, and even it is just running once a day. So, while the timescale for finding out if a commit breaks or fixes other platforms is just a couple hours, we generally need a full day to find out about Windows. For a platform that requires as much special-case care and feeding as the Windows code does, that's not very acceptable. For a platform that's as ubiquitous as Windows allegedly is, that's pretty surprising. You'd think we could find a couple of people willing to run buildfarm tests every four hours or so, as many of the Unix buildfarm members do. (Yeah, I'm a bit ticked off after waiting overnight to find out if yesterday's commits fixed Windows, and getting up to find no new data.) regards, tom lane
