Skip builds on appveyor still use like 1:40

See original GitHub issue

If a recipe skip some builds (python 2 only for example), appveyor is still running 4 containers that take around 2 minutes each.

This seems like a huge waste of time and computing resources. A check could be made early on on the build by simple checking for a line that looks like skip: True # [py3k] or similar… no need to even parse with yaml.

Thoughts @jakirkham ?

So I think there are two problems that I would like to tease out. They are both problems, but they are different problems.

Cleaning up unneeded builds.
Speeding up setup time.

There have been many discussion about both of these at different times. I can try dredging the issue trackers for references if you are curious. Though in both cases I think there is one main solution that is being pursed, which should help many builds regardless of the which builds are involved.

The most pertinent discussion for 1 is actually issue ( https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-forge-webservices/issues/79 ). While I would probably accept small hacky improvements on CIs, I think they will likely get removed in the end once we have a reasonable webservice that does the same thing more cleanly. So the webservice may just be time better spent.

As for 2, the general consensus has been to make a conda-forge installer. The reason being a lot of time is spent upgrading root from defaults to conda-forge. Starting with an installer that includes conda-forge packages from the outset should speed this up dramatically. This work is all happening at this repo. Would definitely appreciate any thoughts and/or help on the various issues open there.
