<Compilation Taking Extremely Long>

Issue or question about MOOSE

Hi All,
My compilation time has increased significantly after updating MOOSE, and when I ran the MOOSE test using
cd ~/projects/moose/test
make -j 6
./run_tests -j 6

It took a few hours to compile and run the test. It is an extremely long time compared to when I did it weeks ago, which only took a few minutes.

Is this something to do with my laptop or the update?

Thank you in advance!

(Optional) code in question / simulation log / errors

Ran 4889 tests in 8586.4 seconds. Average test time 7.8 seconds, maximum test time 247.9 seconds.
4889 passed, 154 skipped, 0 failed

Also got many of this message
ld: warning: could not create compact unwind for _shseqr_: stack subq instruction is too different from dwarf stack size

Encountering Errors? Please include diagnostic output

No error shown when I ran ~/projects/moose/scripts/diagnostics.sh

Hello

the test harness should have also reported on the slowest tests in the suite. Do you mind pasting that?

otherwise, we have not changed the code in a way that would have slowed down compilation or testing significantly.

if you do run_tests --help you should see options to add to the test suite
One of the test took 250s, that s not normal

maximum test time 247.9 seconds.

Hi,
I did ./run_tests --longest-jobs 5 and showed this

Somehow it's no longer 247.9 for the longest ?? but took even longer with 12035 seconds.

Thanks

are intensive in input/output operations. Maybe your hard drive is slower? Is it getting full by any chance?

[minumi]

yes, my storage is kind of low? with only 8GB of available storage.
I will try to clean some storage and see how it goes.

Thanks!
