Viewing Build Time Statistics
Overview
The Build Time Statistics display shows how much time was spent
running builds on specific machines, and in your organization as a
whole.
To access the Build Time Statistics display, select
View->Build Time Statistics from the Coordinator
application. Statistics can be displayed for builds run using
IncrediBuild as well as for builds run from the Microsoft Visual
C++ IDE.
For Each Agent the following information is shown:
- Agent - The Agent computer name.
- Total Time - The accumulated time spent building with
the currently displayed building environment (either IncrediBuild
or Microsoft Visual C++).
- No. Days - Total number of days on which builds were run
on that Agent machine.
- Daily Avg. - Average amount of time per day spent
building on that machine (Total Time divided by No. Days.)
A summary line displaying the above statistics as a total for
all displayed Agents will be displayed below the per-Agent
statistics. Use the Copy to clipboard and Export...
buttons to create a tab-delimited text version of the data that can
be imported into a spreadsheet application.
Notes
- To estimate how much time was saved using IncrediBuild,
multiply the total time spent building with IncrediBuild by the
factor of improvement gained when comparing IncrediBuild builds to
MSVC builds minus 1. For example, if a build takes 60 minutes to
build with MSVC and 6 with IncrediBuild, multiply the total time by
9 to get the total time saved.
- When displaying build statistics for Microsoft Visual C++, note
that only builds that were spawned from MSVC's IDE will be taken
into account.
