So there's two things here:
-
Until we roll-out Dockerized scriptworkers, we're still blocked in infrastructure and we may experience long queues in signing/beetmover/balrog should we schedule all releases at once (e.g. chemspill). Because of that, we often optimized to first trigger
releaseandesrand only thenbetaandnightly. As far as I know, they all share the same priorities in the queue, since they are all releases. But I was wondering if there's ways we can optimize somehow, to infer different priorities (release > beta > nightly). -
The partner repacks all have the same priority but they don't all need to block the push phase. EME tasks are blocking and need to have higher priority than partner repacks counterpart, which are not blocking. I'm wondering if this is possible.
This could save us some time in the end to end release graphs, or at least reduce the time we wait until we call a certain phase.

For (1), the tasks in the graph all get a priority based on the tree here (which has release > esr > beta > nightly).
For (2), we can override that default in tasks. Looking at that list, setting the priority to low or very-low (based on release-level) for scriptworker release-partner tasks would likely have the desired behavior.

Lower the priority of partner-repack jobs and downstreams to medium, so that tasks which do block QE work are not impeded.
