Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2024-11-27 05:17:13 UTC 
Right now, ctest unconditionally take jobs/load-avg from MAKEOPTS.  However, unlike most build systems, ctest does not start any jobs if load-avg is exceeded.  Which means package builds can block for hours without doing anything.  I think it would be helpful to be able to override these values for ctest specifically, i.e. have CTEST_JOBS and CTEST_LOAD_AVG variables, or alike.
