[GitHub] [netbeans] YunLemon commented on pull request #3110: Improve Travis CI build Performance

   Can the root causes of these problems be solved? 
   `travis_retry` and  `travis_wait` means the result of the command is uncertain. However, the build process has to be deterministic. Flaky behavior, e.g., tests that sometimes fail, should be avoided, because this causes maintenance issues. Addressing this issue through retries after failures might not only hide the underlying problem, but makes issues also harder to debug when they only occur sometimes.
   And a lot of time will be wasted if the command fails multiple times.
