They are doing a great job at reinventing JenkinsCI (but remember it's still Java)
- pm90 10y agoWhat's wrong with Java?
- oblio 10y agoResource usage, especially RAM. And I say this as a longtime Jenkins admin.
- falsedan 10y agoThe amount of tooling we've had to do to track, understand, and limit Jenkins VM usage… https://jenkins.io/blog/2016/11/21/gc-tuning/ https://jenkins.io/blog/2016/11/21/gc-tuning/ is the state-of-the-art / why doesn't Jenkins set all this by default.
- alexellisuk 10y agoRestrictive licensing and then there's the fact it is a huge memory hog. I have Blue Ocean running on a home lab with 16GB RAM and Jenkins + SSH slave drains almost all the resources. Also - GitLab Travis / CircleCI etc being quite trendy/new remember that if you need to extend Jenkins you're dealing with a legacy product.
- pm90 10y agoHmm, seems like dev resources would be better spent in improving resource consumption as well. I can't imagine why it would need so much.
- oblio 10y agoJenkins is both being actively developed and in a different niche than the others. Something isn't legacy just because there's something newer out there. Or everything is legacy :)
- vacri 10y agoLast week I was setting up a large java app (bamboo) and I started it up. Where did I instinctively go to check that it was running? Ask systemd? No. Check the log file? Nope. I went into htop to check that the CPU was now pegged... :)
