Re: Possible to extend the gitlab runner timeout?

Hi Robert,

I've updated the timeout of Runner #78 (cnwewr6c) "New local common-lisp.net runner for asdf pipelines" to 2 hours instead of 1 hour. Are there any other runners involved?

Regards,
Georgiy

However, I doubt that the ASDF tests are concurrency-safe, since their correctness involves interaction with the state of the filesystem.  So probably it would not be enough to split the tests across cores, but they would probably have to be split across containers, as well. This might be quite a bit of work, requiring more understanding of how GitLab CI than I have.
