That will help the debian11 VM a bit.

The main bottleneck is the debian11 VM on VM1, though w1064 on VM3 is 
not far behind.

The statistics page says that the (non-WineTest) debian11 tasks take 5m 
11s on average. Add the 43.6 second revert time and that means it can 
process a bit over 10 tasks per hour.

Each email generates 2 debian11 tasks (one for 32-bit and one for 
wow32+wow64). So 25 emails will generate 50 tasks and thus take about 5 
hours to process.

Another tidbit: over the past 7 days debian11 has received 5.3 
tasks/hour on average. That's 127 tasks/day, though my gut feeling is 
that most of these have been during weekdays so it's more a rate of 
about 170 tasks/day (7.4 tasks/hour).

Yes.

Looking at the stats page I noticed that the average debian11 revert 
time is a bit long (43.6s) so I'm doing a refresh of the VM. That will 
reduce the size of the disk image and should speed up the reverts a bit 
(I'm hoping for reverts in the 10 to 30s range).

At the same time I'm upgrading the VM from Debian 11.0 to 11.2.


And I'm also trying to update debiant: there's little point to a Debian 
Testing machine if it's completely out of date. But at the same time 
OpenGL multiarch support is quite broken in Debian Testing so the latest 
may not be very usable. Good to know either way.
