I’m testing the performance bottleneck of the controller-agent distributed architecture. How many agents and jobs can a single controller support?
Hi there,
As a reminder, the term “agent” to refer to an agent has been deprecated since 2016. Please refer to On Jenkins Terminology Updates for more details. We request you update your post.
Take a look at https://assets.ctfassets.net/vtn4rfaw6n2j/2016-jenkins-world-soyouwanttobuildtheworldslargestjenkinscluste/9861b86403e5dc3c81bbc13e129bf9e9/2016-jenkins-world-soyouwanttobuildtheworldslargestjenkinscluster_final.pdf
Even several years old still valid I would say.
We run with 170 static agents and over 3000 jobs without problems.
We also have other instances with around 100 agents and over 10000 jobs.
