+There were a large number of updates to our [Jenkins](https://jenkins.io/)-based testing framework that powers [tests.reproducible-builds.org](tests.reproducible-builds.org) by Holger Levsen this week, see below. The most important work was done behind the scenes, outside of git, which was a long debugging session to find out why jenkins java processes were suddenly eating all CPU while the machine had a load of 60-200. This involved (temporarily) removing all 1300 jobs, disabling plugins and other things, all didn't help. In the end it turned out that the underlying SSH/HDD performance was configured poorly, after this was fixed, java/jenkins immediatly ran normal.
