Description

We've set up an experimental "Self Hosted" GitHub runner on an older Hetzner dedicated host (Ryzen 3700X). Lets see if the CI tests run faster using that.

How is this tested?

k. Looks like GitHub's Self Hosted Runners are pretty bare bones. I was expecting they'd run things automatically inside docker containers. Like, say, Jenkins self-hosted runners can.

Will try again shortly, after doing some more setup in the node...

Well, this looks like a pretty solid fail. Nested docker (inside an LXC container) is executing very, very slowly.

This might be workable on bare metal equipment instead, but I personally don't have any spare that's of a reasonable spec / likely to be faster than GitHub's provided stuff.
