Incredibuild 不是很快

Question

Our project takes a long time to compile, so I'm trying the trial version of Incredibuild.

It is made of a solution of about 50 projects.

The thing is, when I compile with incredibuild it doesn't go much faster, it may even last longer some times ...

Here is a screenshot of the graph produced by incredibuild while build a subproject of the solution and it's dependencies, at times it appears to be doing absolutely nothing :

The build without incredibuild took 4 minutes, with it here 5 minutes, most often is falls to 3:30 like in the following case, but still with some gaps:

Any idea what could cause this to happen?

note the problem is the same if I build the whole project

btw the red line is cpu usage, green network in, and blue network out, as reported by incredibuild.

edit: just to be clear and since some people tend to focus on the low compile time of the examples above instead of trying to give a meaningful answer, a full rebuild of the project takes about 1 hour and half

Answer 1

The best thing you can do is to send your log file to the IncrediBuild support team at support@incredibuild.com

In order to extract the log file, please follow the following instructions:

1. Set your Agent's logging level to "Extended" (right click the IncrediBuild tray icon->Agent Settings->"Agent|General" page).
2. Run your build.
3. Double-click the IncrediBuild tray-icon to open the Build Monitor.
4. Select "File->Save Monitor File As..." to save the build progress file and attach the file to your reply.
5. Restore your logging level back to "Minimal".

Please mention in your email that Dori referred you to the support department.

Thanks, The IncrediBuild Team.
