From 24a1aae483b4c1537b2fa181b8df365f55c241ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kevin Longe <273747162+kvlonge@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2026 17:51:45 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] test: guard same-job compile ratios on CPU time with wall backstops The plan-vs-compile and cache-write overhead guards compared two wall times in one job and failed at random on shared runners by hairlines. CPU time (user+sys) is now the tight limit and a looser wall-time ratio remains as a backstop for lost parallelism, lock waits and I/O. Limits are calibrated from recent CI job logs: each CPU limit clears the worst recent CPU ratio by at least 15%. The plan guard and the per-path cache measurements now log CPU time for both sides. --- .../main/compile/COMPILE_BENCHMARKS.md | 7 ++++--- .../cli/commands/main/compile/_test_types.py | 3 ++- ..._fresh_process_compile_cache_performance.py | 14 ++++++++------ .../test_inspection_command_performance.py | 18 +++++++++++++----- 4 files changed, 27 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) diff --git a/tests/e2e/src/sqlbuild/cli/commands/main/compile/COMPILE_BENCHMARKS.md b/tests/e2e/src/sqlbuild/cli/commands/main/compile/COMPILE_BENCHMARKS.md index 9268171389..eba4f94aa9 100644 --- a/tests/e2e/src/sqlbuild/cli/commands/main/compile/COMPILE_BENCHMARKS.md +++ b/tests/e2e/src/sqlbuild/cli/commands/main/compile/COMPILE_BENCHMARKS.md @@ -75,9 +75,10 @@ behind a loose timing budget.
