It depend on the builders, but I think i would remove 10% for a start,<br>
so around 4.<br>
<br>
Now, not all builders are equal, I am not gonna remove the debian nor<br>
the freebsd one, of course.<br>
<br>
I think the easiest would be to mark them offline in jenkins, see if<br>
that create issues (such as the queue becoming large), and if nothing<br>
happen, remove them.<br>
<br>
AFAIK, thoses are mostly here for smoke tests, format, warnings, etc.<br>
So fast jobs.<br>
