[webkit-dev] Irregular nightly builds

[Evan Martin]

In case it helps track your problem down, we also publish snapshots of Chromium:
  http://build.chromium.org/f/chromium/snapshots/

This script automates tracking down a problem.
  http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/src/tools/bisect-builds.py?view=markup
"This script bisects a snapshot archive using binary search. It starts at
a bad revision (it will try to guess HEAD) and asks for a last known-good
revision. It will then binary search across this revision range by downloading,
unzipping, and opening Chromium for you. After testing the specific revision,
it will ask you whether it is good or bad before continuing the search."

I'm tracking a bug that was introduced between 2010-12-17 and 2011-01-08. More than 1000 Patches were committed during that time. This makes it much harder to find the exact revision that causes the problem. What is the reason for the rare number of builds?
