Blossom-CI workflow (pytorch/TensorRT)
The Blossom-CI workflow from pytorch/TensorRT, explained and optimized by Latchkey.
- B
- CI health grade
- 72/100
- Health score
- 4
- Jobs per trigger
- 2
- Fixes in the optimized version
In short
- CI health: B (good)
- The optimized version below points runs-on at Latchkey managed runners and adds job timeouts.
What it does
This is the Blossom-CI workflow from the pytorch/TensorRT repository, a real project running GitHub Actions. It is shown here with attribution under its BSD-3-Clause license.
Below, Latchkey shows a faster, safer version produced by its optimization engine.

What changed
- Run on Latchkey managed runners with one line (
runs-on), which apply the fixes below automatically and self-heal transient failures. Each Linux x64 job moves to the Latchkey size matching its vCPU count,latchkey-smallfor a standard 2 vCPU runner; macOS, Windows and arm64 jobs stay as written. - Add a job timeout so a hung step cannot burn hours of runner time.
1 third-party action is referenced by a movable tag. Pin it to the commit SHA (Latchkey resolves and applies this automatically) so a repointed tag cannot change what runs.
This workflow runs 4 jobs per trigger. 1 of the 4 runs on a standard GitHub-hosted Linux x64 runner, which in a private repository bills $0.006 a minute against $0.0025 on latchkey-small, 58% lower; in a public repository like this one it is free. Estimate the monthly difference with your own run counts.
