 nasso | (yes thats the entirety of it) | 18:21:59 |
| nasso | so i just added a devShell so i could nix develop into it and run a cargo check to update it, and now it builds! | 18:22:45 |
| nasso | the error did NOT help at all lmao | 18:23:01 |

| K900 | 1.94.1 is security | 13:25:35 |
 Winter | can grab in a few hours if nobody else does | 13:26:28 |
 emily | (thanks xokdvium) | 14:08:54 |
 Vika (she/her) changed their profile picture. | 18:36:25 | |
| K900 | This is the Rust room | 19:12:12 |
| K900 | ? | 19:12:13 |
| K900 | Oh | 19:12:15 |
| K900 | Holy federation lag lmao | 19:12:20 |

 Pratham Patel joined the room. | 01:03:55 | |
| Pratham Patel | Would anyone from the Rust team mind reviewing https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/501979? | 01:05:42 |
| Winter | i feel like this is a dupe of another PR | 03:02:14 |
| Winter | just based off memory | 03:02:19 |
| Winter | i’ll need to prof further tho | 03:02:24 |
| Winter | prod | 03:02:26 |
 niklaskorz | @tomasajt:matrix.org already reviewed it as the author of fetchCargoVendor and stated: | 12:22:29 |

 whispers [& it/fae] | so, we've been playing with rustc bootstrapping out of tree at https://codeberg.org/whispers/nebula/src/branch/meow/nix/pkgs/rust-bootstrap. the code itself is a little iffy, but we've got some initial performance metrics.
.override { ... }, so this is the part we build right now in nixpkgs.(take these as order of magnitude estimates, the numbers are extremely noisy. build were run on several different days with other things running on my laptop.) so yeah. the start and end of the chain are expensive, and both are fairly constant cost. the intermediate versions have a relatively small linear coefficient, and we've done what we're aware of to make these builds do as little work as possible (there are probably still ways to shave off a little bit of time though), but it's probably not small enough to be tenable as the distance between stable and what mrustc supports grows. | 18:32:23 |

| whispers [& it/fae] | (actually i lied, we can probably cut off a minute and a half from each of the intermediate builds, but we don't feel like looking more into bootstrap right now. but other than that, i think shaving off any further time from the intermediate builds would require diving deeper into compiler flags and whatnot that might help.) | 18:34:59 |
