Description

Description

Evaluate a merge-queue Java prebuild that warms the remote cache before service test fan-out. It should reduce duplicate NV Boot compilation without increasing wall time.

Definition of Done

  • Compare current and prebuild runs for an NV Boot change.
  • Record wall time, Bazel actions or cache-hit rate, and runner minutes.
  • Adopt it only if it reduces wall time and duplicate work. Otherwise retain the current fan-out.

Resources (optional)

  • .github/workflows/bazel.yml

Research direction

Start with .github/workflows/bazel.yml and compare the current fan-out with a merge-queue Java prebuild for an NV Boot change. Record wall time, Bazel actions or cache-hit rate, and runner minutes for both runs. Done means adopting the prebuild only if it reduces wall time and duplicate work; otherwise retain the current fan-out.
