Number of Parallel Jobs #26422
-
|
Is there a limit to the number of parallel jobs that can be triggered at the same time? The description of “Jobs” here - https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/actions/learn-github-actions/introduction-to-github-actions seems to indicate that there could be unlimited jobs triggered in parallel. |

The “usage limits” documentation mentions that the maximum number of parallel jobs depends on your plan: Usage limits, billing, and administration - GitHub DocsAdditional jobs will just have to wait until spots free up. |

So the number of parallel macOS jobs is limited to 5, but the number of jobs is unlimited for Linux and Windows? |

No, check the “Total concurrent jobs” column of the table. That’s what applies to Linux and Windows. |

Thanks! And if I also have macOS jobs, is the total number of concurrent jobs 25 for the free tier (20 for any combination of Linux and Windows; 5 for macOS)? |

That’s how I understand the table, but if you need a definitive answer you’ll have to ask someone from Github. 😉 That said, it’s not like trying to start more concurrent jobs will break anything, it’s just that some of them will have to wait until spots free up. |
