Thanks alot for re quick response, the results looks cool. And Also, I noticed that the ARM job sometimes are slower than others in the fetch_tarball phase, this might due to that our machine is in China and the network connection is a little bit slow, I just got the info that our machine will be available in Singapore latter this month or ealier next month, maybe then we can then provide a machine with faster network which can speed up the jobs.
Related to this, I wonder if it would be possible to install a newer operating system (or Docker image), such as CentOS 8 or Debian 10 or the most recent Fedora. What prompts me to ask is that I just noticed a compilation failure of MariaDB 10.2 that might be addressed by upgrading to a newer compiler: /buildbot/aarch64-centos-7/build/storage/innobase/row/row0log.cc: In function 'dberr_t _ZL17row_log_apply_opsPK5trx_tP12dict_index_tP15row_merge_dup_tP16ut_stage_alter_t.isra.94(const trx_t*, dict_index_t*, row_merge_dup_t*)': /buildbot/aarch64-centos-7/build/storage/innobase/row/row0log.cc:3734:1: error: could not split insn More information is available in https://buildbot.mariadb.org/#/builders/33/builds/260 (including a request to submit a compiler bug report). I remember seeing that kind of an error for some 64-bit atomic operation on a very old GCC targeting x86 (on CentOS 5 maybe?). While we have older compilers than GCC 4.8.5 for other instruction set architectures, I do not think that we run into internal compiler errors very often. On my AMD64 desktop, I am currently using GCC 9.2.1 and clang 9.0.0. As a developer, I prefer to have the most recent versions of tools whenever it is possible, for better diagnostics and possibly better optimizations.
