Hi guys,
One of our project workflow takes a long time to run (5 hours - one worker), i’ve fan out the steps which reduces the time it takes to run the job. But i also want to prevent it from using up all the available resources while putting other jobs on hold.
Is it possible to set a maximum number of concurrent builds on a workflow, so some resources are free up for other jobs to run.
At this time there is no way to limit concurrency for individual workflows. Though it should be possible to resolve this if you’re on the performance plan. Could you submit a support ticket? We can take a closer look at your plan. You can reference this post in the ticket.
I’m also very much interested in such a feature. Our CI depends on third parties that can’t handle as much concurrency as CircleCI. In the current configuration, we both starve them and have CirleCI jobs that are running, using credits only for waiting.
