Hi everyone, Happy new year!

My first post on this list.

My company is using cruisecontrol for quite some time already, several years. But I am managing it only for a few months.
So there are still a lot of things I do not know about cruisecontrol.

I was wondering if we could have two queues for a single instance of cruisecontrol ?

Many people are asking the other way around, where they want several cruisecontrol process on 1 or many servers to report back into one dashboard.
I kinda want the opposite. That instead of running 2 cruisecontrol or more. It would manage 2 queues by itself.

The reason being is that I want to separate products from different team and also products that are taking a lot of time versus small ones. And giving them a thread limit per queue.

So, if my server is able to take on a charge of 20 thread for example. I could dedicate 5 or 6 to some products, 5 or 6 to some others and keeping some available for an emergency queue, in which I could add product to compile right away.

By the way, we haven't found a way to tell cruisecontrol to re-read his config.xml file.
Restarting it is the only options at the moment, which I don't like as it creates interruption and all projects gets requeued automatically.

Something like " kill –HUP $cc_pid " would be awesome ;)

Thanks

Mathieu Jobin
