Feature #308840, revision 1
Title: performance: concurrent builds ... 
  
Buildservice: New
Priority 
    Requester: Mandatory 
 
Requested by: Michael Meeks (michael_meeks) 
 
Description: 
A local osc build should be safe wrt. concurrency, and preferably encourage it. 
Currently - before I run 'osc build' I have to have a mental check to see "is 
there a long-running ISO build happening" (eg). because if there is - as I run 
'osc build' I will destroy that jail [ with no prompting ], and corrupt my 
long-running task.

Worse - if I am building an ISO, I can't build a simple package to test it: I 
have to wait until it is finished [ sure there are environment variables you 
can set - but how lame is that ! ].

Of course - we really need the FUSE optimisation fate#308837# to make this 
efficient (given similar packages etc.).

However - even some safety-features to avoid trashing an existing build would 
be rather helpful. It should not be necessary to "just have another machine" to 
run ISO builds.
