So I setup a server to track automatically the amount of testing that each kernel gets. Clearly this will be a very rough approximation and it can't be reliable, but perhaps it'll be useful. If this won't be useful, the time I spent on it is very minor so no problem ;). All the details can be found in the project website: http://klive.cpushare.com/ Full source (server included) is here: http://klive.cpushare.com/downloads/klive-0.0.tar.bz2 To run the client: wget http://klive.cpushare.com/klive.tac Then at every boot (like in /etc/init.d/boot.local): twistd -oy klive.tac In theory we could get rid of the client entirely and make it a kernel config option, but I've no idea if this project is useful, so I don't want to spend too much time on it at this point. Thank you.
