ci: per-lane durations for windows-aarch64, fix the slow-test log parsers, regenerate the table - #41070
Conversation
The windows-aarch64 test lane packed its shards with the timings of the windows-x64 lane. Its serial files run about 2x slower than on x64, and not uniformly (bundler_compile.test.ts takes 222s there against 48s in the x64 column). One shard carried 920s of work against a 610s mean, and this lane is the last to finish in most builds. update-test-durations.mjs now records a windows-aarch64 column from windows-aarch64-11-test-bun, and runner.node.mjs picks it for that step (with the windows column as the fallback for files that lack one). The log parser also treated the `--- [A-B/M] K files in parallel` bucket header as plain output, so the serial file that ran right before the bucket was charged the bucket's whole wall time (for example js/valkey/unit/basic-operations.test.ts at 111.6s on windows, real 0.1s). The header now closes the preceding span. Regenerated test/expected-durations.json from builds 108911, 108910, 108909, 108906, 108905 with `node scripts/update-test-durations.mjs --builds 5`. 5906 entries.

LGTM — focused CI shard-packing tweak, no runtime code touched.
What was reviewed:
loadExpectedDurations: the new ordered-column fallback preserves the old chain and correctly preferswindows-aarch64beforewindowson WoA; duplicates from the trailing.pushare harmless under.find.parseLogregex:[A-B/M]headers now match, and the captured title ("K files in parallel") fails both thetimedandisPathchecks, so the span closes without opening a bogus one.expected-durations.jsonis generated output; spot-checked_metamatches the stated source builds.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR adds a windows-aarch64 column to the CI test-duration table so that lane packs its shards against its own timings instead of Windows x64's. Three files change: scripts/update-test-durations.mjs gains a fifth lane entry and a one-token regex widening (\d+ → \d+(?:-\d+)?) so the [A-B/M] K files in parallel bucket header is recognized as a span delimiter; scripts/runner.node.mjs reworks loadExpectedDurations() to build an ordered column-preference list instead of a single lane with a hardcoded ?? chain; and test/expected-durations.json is regenerated (~50k lines of churn, all mechanical output of the script).
Security risks
None. This is CI-internal shard-packing tooling that reads a checked-in JSON file and BuildKite job logs. No user input, no network-facing surface, no auth/crypto/permissions. The regex change is applied to trusted CI log lines, and the JSON is repo-controlled data consumed only by the test runner's bin-packing step.
Level of scrutiny
Low. The two logic changes are each a handful of lines in maintenance scripts, not shipped runtime code. I traced both through: in parseLog, a range-form header like --- [12-47/5906] 36 files in parallel now matches hdr, calls emit(ts) to close the preceding serial file's span, and then the title fails both the (X.XXs) timed-match and the file-extension isPath check, so path/start are nulled — exactly the "delimiter, not a file" treatment the existing retry-header comment describes. In loadExpectedDurations, the WoA branch produces ["windows-aarch64", "windows", "default", "asan", "musl", "windows", "windows-aarch64"]; the trailing duplicates are inert because .find short-circuits, and every other lane's effective fallback order is unchanged from the old ?? entry.default ?? entry.asan ?? entry.musl ?? entry.windows chain.
Other factors
No CODEOWNERS entry covers scripts/ or the durations JSON (only *.d.ts is owned). The bug hunt exited on dry_streak with no findings and no ruled-out candidates. There are no prior reviews or outstanding objections in the timeline. The PR description is unusually detailed with before/after measurements, which lines up with what the code does. The large JSON diff is generated output whose _meta.source_builds matches the builds named in the description.
Both slow-test parsers (scripts/ci-slowest-tests.ts and scripts/update-test-durations.mjs) measured a file as the gap between its `[N/M] <path>` header and the next header they recognized. Every other header runner.node.mjs emits (`--- napi prebuild:`, the `--- [A-B/M] K files in parallel` bucket, `--- Running N parallel-safe`, `--- End`, `--- Summary`, `--- Received <signal>, exiting`) was invisible, so the serial test that happened to run before one of them was charged the whole phase that followed. - Those phase headers close the open span. The check is an allowlist of the titles the runner emits, not any `--- ` line, because streamed test output can still contain `--- a/<file>` or `--- ps ---`. - `[N/M] <path>` matches with or without the `--- ` prefix. Bucket summary lines `[N/M] <path> (X.XXs)` use the inline timing. Concurrent dispatch spans are clamped to 500 ms. - Retry/error labels (`<path> - code 1`) are a boundary that opens no span, so the retry backoff lands on neither attempt. - A truncated log (no `--- End`) charges the open span to the last timestamp seen instead of dropping it. Both scripts export parseLog behind an entrypoint guard, and test/internal/ci-slowest-tests.test.ts exercises them against the same header fixtures. scripts/buildkite-slow-tests.js from #35418 is gone from main (#39581) and is not restored. Regenerated test/expected-durations.json with the combined parser from builds 108915, 108911, 108910, 108909, 108906.

LGTM — the shared isPhaseGroupHeader allowlist in scripts/ci-log-phase.mjs cleanly deduplicates the boundary check between the two parsers, and both are now covered by test/internal/ci-slowest-tests.test.ts.
Checked the loadExpectedDurations column-fallback ordering in runner.node.mjs — windows-aarch64 is preferred, then windows, then the remaining lanes via the appended tail, and .find(typeof value === "number") correctly skips missing columns. Verified the entrypoint guards (import.meta.main / process.argv[1] === fileURLToPath(...)) keep the token check and network fetches out of the import path so the test file can load both scripts without side effects. The regenerated expected-durations.json _meta matches the new lanes map. No runtime code touched; CI-tooling only.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR touches only CI tooling: two BuildKite log parsers (scripts/ci-slowest-tests.ts, scripts/update-test-durations.mjs), a new shared helper scripts/ci-log-phase.mjs, a small column-fallback change in scripts/runner.node.mjs's loadExpectedDurations(), a regenerated test/expected-durations.json (the ~50k-line delta is machine-produced timing data with a new windows-aarch64 column), and a new unit test file test/internal/ci-slowest-tests.test.ts. No Bun runtime, native, or user-facing code is changed.
Security risks
None. The scripts run as maintainer tooling against BuildKite logs and never ship in the Bun binary. parseArgs({ strict: false }) only relaxes CLI parsing for a local script. The token read and all network fetches were moved behind entrypoint guards, which is strictly safer for the new import-from-test path.
Level of scrutiny
Low-to-moderate. The blast radius is CI shard balance and slow-test reporting — a parser bug produces suboptimal packing, not incorrect test results or runtime behavior. The parser rewrite is the non-trivial part, and it now has direct fixture-based unit coverage exercising every phase-header shape the PR description enumerates (serial, parallel-safe, parallel-bucket with inline (X.XXs), napi prebuild, retry labels, truncated logs, stray --- diff lines). The runner.node.mjs change is a straightforward ordered-fallback list replacing a single-lane-plus-??-chain.
Other factors
Since the earlier review on this PR, two commits landed: one folding in the parser fixes and one extracting the shared allowlist into ci-log-phase.mjs (addressing duplication between the two parsers). The one CodeRabbit inline thread at update-test-durations.mjs:117 is marked resolved by a non-author. No CODEOWNERS entry covers the changed paths. Bug-hunt exit reason was dry_streak with zero findings.

windows-aarch64-11-test-bunpacks its 8 shards with the timings of the windows x64 lane. Its serial files run about 2x slower and not uniformly (bundler/bundler_compile.test.tsis 222s there, 48s in the x64 column). One shard carries 922s of work against a 610s mean. This lane finished last in 46 of the 47 completed builds since ci: update test durations #40993 merged, so it sets the build time: the median build went from 1342s to 1386s while the linux lanes got faster (x64 glibc slowest shard 233s to 178s).scripts/update-test-durations.mjs,scripts/ci-slowest-tests.ts) only recognize[N/M] <path>headers. Every other header the runner emits (--- napi prebuild:, the--- [A-B/M] K files in parallelbucket,--- Running N parallel-safe) is invisible, so the serial file that runs right before one is charged the whole phase that follows.
