Well looking at the valgrind errors from night to night, they appear to be the same tests each day... so either they are all getting executed each night or the same ones run each night.

As clownfish and brian.jouy report mostly all of the same test failures with valgrind each night, I'd hope that they are running complete tests, or else we are missing a significant about of valgrind checking!

brian.jouy appears to be running most of the tests each night:

I thought that when parallel ctest with the "-j" flag was added then valgrind builds were able to complete the testing of the entire toolkit  in a reasonable time.

I am not sure what clownfish is doing with such few tests being run each night, on the main part of the dashboard.
