Does self-hosted runner support long build time 2.5h ?

Question

Hi,

We have a lot of non-parallelizable build components. We want to use self-hosted bitbucket runners with a build time greater than 2.5 hours (e.g Yocto, Chrome, ...). Is it possible?

Thanks,

One big negative point for atlassian/bitbucket, when other players have 70h build time.

Our use case is specialized and our build is not splittable... So, we shouldn't use bitbucket for this purpose.

I don't think so. The documentation mentions max limit as `120` minutes for each step: https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/runners/

You could however split your build into 2 steps maybe and have them run for longer, if possible.
