Drop Mac Python 3.9 builds? #6040

Closed

Description

@mrocklin

Our OSX CI queue is often backed up, especially during US working hours. Our tests are not very sensitive to Python versions. I propose that we drop the 3.9 builds and keep 3.8 and 3.10.

Thoughts? cc @crusaderky @fjetter @graingert

    Leaving everything else untouched, I don't think it's a wise idea. It's not just about python version.

    • 3.8 is the only cythonized one
    • 3.9 is the only one with CUDA
    • 3.10 is the only one with several libraries at their git tip

    We could move CUDA to 3.8 or 3.10 though.

    OSX is not a production OS but rather a developer OS and I would be perfectly fine to not test against all dependencies, cython, etc. Having the minimal set running would be OK for me. I can't remember hitting an OSX specific problem, so far.
