EWS only repeats its cycle every two hours

• Component: Tools / Tests
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Alexey Proskuryakov]

When a patch fails in an uncertain way, so that  EWS cannot decide whether it introduces a failure, the whole cycle starts over.

How it currently works is that the lock is never released, so the retry happens when the lock expires. That's silly, especially now that the expiry time is two hours - any patch that was submitted to EWS while build was broken will not be retried until two hours later, which is probably longer than it would take to fix the breakage on average.

I'm going to make queues release the lock any time they are done.

We should rename two_hours_ago to something like cutoff_time now that the timeout is abstracted by a variable.
