Greetings, 
     
    A few infra-related items that may interest you: 
     
    New Build storage 
     
    The Eclipse build farm now uses a new 3.2TB storage unit.  This
    server replaces the 8+ year old gear that was serving that purpose.
    The new unit is very fast, however current build speed is still
    being held back by NFS performance.  We're working on alternatives
    with the Hudson Instance per Project initiative (below). 
     
     
    New Database server 
    A new Database server has been provisioned.  With 256G of RAM,
    everything is performed in RAM, and disks are used for buffered
    writes only.  Bugzilla query execution time has improved up to 30%,
    and download statistics queries are up to 95% faster. 
     
     
    Asterisk issues, new numbers 
    We've had a few issues with our Asterisk voice conferencing system
    over the past month.  Andrew and I have been working feverishly to
    identify the issues and resolve them.  We've recently added a new
    number in Sweden; please check this page regularly for the most
    recent dial-in information:

    Hudson Instance per Project 
    We've begun deploying prototypical HIPP for the Long Term Support
    and LocationTech communities, and so far it looks very promising. 
    Once we've identified the winning combination of hardware, infra and
    setup, we'll begin offering the service to the Eclipse.org
    community.  Stay tuned.

    If you have any questions or concerns about the Eclipse servers and
    infrastructure, please don't hesitate to ping us directly at
