Hello, we observe more and more people using Copr for rebuilding large amounts of packages from some third-party repositories. We have projects providing all python packages, R packages, we have projects providing all Fedora packages rebuilt with some proposal change, etc. These are all valid use-cases and Copr should be able to sustain such loads (even though we still have some bottlenecks to get rid of). To make the mass-rebuilding experience better for new users, we put together a short list of best practices. https://docs.pagure.org/copr.copr/user_documentation.html#mass-rebuilds If you think that some useful tip is missing, let us know.

Very reasonable guidelines, thanks for putting them together. > I'd add: If possible, use the --background flag when building large amount of > packages. I was about to add the same. One issue is that some of these mass rebuilds are triggered via webhooks, which do not provide the means for setting this flag. Reported in [1].
