Add support for the Jenkins Heavy Job plugin #839

Closed cottsay closed 4 years ago

cottsay commented 4 years ago

This plugin will need to be installed at the same time this PR is merged to avoid unnecessary diffs in the job configurations.

The intended use case is to allow some jobs (namely the nightly CI jobs) to take up more executor slots on the workers to avoid resource contention with other jobs.

Does the XML snippet need to be present in every job even if the job doesn't set a custom value?

Unfortunately, yes. Once the plugin is installed, all jobs get the snippet.

Can you please create a corresponding PR then to add the plugin to the buildfarm_deployment repo.
