Earlier this year, we took a significant step forward by announcing our new CI/CD runtime, complete with 4x and 8x build sizes as part of our commitment to improve performance. As our users continue to work on increasingly complex projects, the demand for greater computational power has become evident. In response, we are excited to introduce the 16x build size.
New CPU and memory upgrades
The 16x builds offer a significant upgrade over the 8x builds, doubling both the CPU cores and memory.
For reference:
- 8x builds will be provisioned with 16 CPU cores and 32GB of memory.
- 16x builds will be provisioned with 32 CPU cores and 64GB of memory.
Example — using the size option to increase the memory available to all pipeline steps
options:
size: 16x
pipelines:
default:
- step:
script:
- echo "16x memory and CPU is probably not needed for an echo command"
Example — using the size option to increase the memory available to one pipeline step
pipelines:
default:
- step:
size: 16x
script:
- echo "This step gets 16x the memory and CPU of 1x steps!"For more information on setting up and using the larger step sizes, check out the Pipelines documentation.
