Percent complete flickers between numbers occasionally when mulitple builds are running

[jeffreykey]

Occasionally the percent complete will flicker between two numbers when multiple builds are running. It flickers several times/second, then stops.

I'll try to provide more info if it will help.

Thanks, the more info the better. Could you use a phone to film or record the screen somehow?

Ah, that is bad!

I've never seen that before :(

Are the builds running in parallel? It could have a problem with that, I've not really tested it. Anything else you can tell me about your TeamCity setup that might be relevant?

If you hit 'i' you'll get a popup with important notifications. Is there anything in that? Better still, can you tail the log (should be in user.home (same place as the YML config) as radiate.log I think).

As luck would have it, I was able to grab screenshot of the building configurations when it was flickering.

As for the log, there's nothing interesting in it. It simply states that it's monitoring 18 projects (by name) "as a single aggregate". That's it.

Don't know if this is relevant, but radiate lists the number of build configurations running, not the actual number of builds. For example, in the screenshot above, three build configurations have builds running but there are actually five builds running. Radiate says that only three builds are running.

I'll have to have a think and get back to you. It doesn't support nested builds (see this issue) though I can't remember the details so it may or may not be related...

[tobyweston]

It sounds like its a bug that it's misreporting the number of builds. I'll take a look at that too. Thanks for reporting it all.

Not a problem at all. Thanks for your work!
