Hey

So after a long while I've been able to pick up my work on using the pipeline plugin. Anyways, I've started hacking at hooking it up to our staging environment. One step is run on our master node, and the other step is run on a dynamically provisioned EC2 instance. I'm archiving the entire workspace and copying it to the other node. It looks like the folder size is 1.8 gb.

How exactly does archiving work? Are you zipping, copying over and extracting? Or are you syncing file by file?

The speed to do this unarchiving step is pretty long. It takes > 10 mins to run.
