Pipelines had been taking >90m to run the CodeQL github/codeql-action/analyze@v3 step sicne 2.20.4. When reverting back to 2.20.3 via
...
- name: "Initialize CodeQL"
uses: github/codeql-action/init@v3
with:
tools: https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases/download/codeql-bundle-v2.20.3/codeql-bundle-linux64.tar.zst
languages: javascript-typescript
...the issue is resolved. It is difficult to see why this is happening, but in our case the codebase is large (CodeQL scanned 8401 out of 8401 TypeScript files and 1568 out of 1569 JavaScript files in this invocation.). Normal runtime for this job is about 10 minutes with 32 GB memory and 40 (32 effective) CPUs
Let me know if I can help resolve the issue by providing additional details about the codebase. I suspect something in particular about this codebase may be running inefficiently, as no other JS/TS scans within the enterprise have been impacted so far
