We recently upgraded to ClearCase plugin 1.2.1 from a version which is about a year old (sorry not sure the version). The change to lshistory from the whole VOB since the last build means that for large VOBs with a small amount of elements which are interesting to the build this polling activity can take a very long time especially if the job has infrequent changes.
Would it be possible to have an option to use the lshistory -r functionality as it used to be, or alternatively to only poll for changes since the last time it was polled?
I just created request for using other load rules fields to select folders and/or files instead of VOBs: http://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-8949
For this use case lshistory -recurse is faster then -all. We should add new option for experts:
use lshistory -all (optimized for whole VOBs)
( ) use lshistory -recurse (optimized for small amount of folders and files)
