 emily | the machine is chugging quite a bit, but I'm not doing anything urgent | 21:49:30 |
 Gaétan Lepage | Yes it's definitely me | 21:50:10 |
| emily | might be worth lowering the maxJobs in your remote builder config to give them a bit of extra breathing room 😅 | 21:50:11 |
| Gaétan Lepage | That's very true. I think it defaults to 32 which is quite stupid | 21:51:15 |
| Gaétan Lepage | Each time I see one of those tweets from exo about their 9k mac minis farm, I get jalous X) | 21:52:08 |

 hexa | same story with the aarch64-linux builder | 04:05:54 |
| hexa | this is shared infrastructure | 04:06:00 |
| hexa | take the hint | 04:06:05 |
| emily | Gaétan Lepage: darwin builder CPU is pegged (trying to unblock staging-next-24.11) | 14:32:51 |
| hexa | Gaétan Lepage: 10 builds jobs are still at least twice too many for 10 core CPU | 14:48:28 |
| hexa | and again, this is a shared resource 🤦♂️ | 14:48:39 |
 zowoq | Do you want me to start killing builds on it? | 14:54:32 |
| hexa | * Gaétan Lepage: 10 builds jobs are still at least twice too many for a 10 core CPU | 14:55:37 |
| hexa | emily: I think this is for you ^ | 14:56:33 |
| emily | I need to run a handful of Node.js builds to unblock staging-next-24.11 which are very slow/intensive to do on my local x86_64-darwin, so it would help, since Gaétan appears to be afk | 14:57:25 |
| emily | (however I don't know how urgent staging-next-24.11 is) | 14:57:32 |
| hexa | we wanted to merge today | 14:57:47 |
| zowoq | It was borderline non-responsive so I've rebooted it. | 15:00:58 |
 Jonas Chevalier | Ok I guess we're going to get a aarch64-linux builder before the GPU instance.
If you're using the builders at work, please ask your employer if they can fund https://opencollective.com/nix-community . If you need me to talk to them or give you material to justify the expense, I'm happy to do so. | 15:24:17 |
| Gaétan Lepage | My bad. I apologize for this stupid move. | 18:01:11 |

| zowoq | We're still short of the target but Jonas Chevalier is going to cover the difference for now.
New machine is up: aarch64-build-box.nix-community.org

| emily | wow, nice 🎉 | 02:58:34 |
| emily | could coordinate in #ofborg:nixos.org so we can have it as an ofborg builder too? | 02:59:09 |
| zowoq | Considering the budgets of the orgs involved I think it would make more sense for the nixos org to pay for an aarch64-linux ofborg builder that can also be used as a community builder. | 03:31:28 |
| emily | it sounded like infra team didn't want to have to deal with it, but agreed that the foundation paying for it makes sense | 03:36:28 |
| emily | I think nix-community could open a ticket on the foundation GitHub for that? (i forget the exact process) | 03:36:53 |
| zowoq | And I don't want to deal with ofborg. | 03:39:08 |
| emily | maybe we can get ofborg team to admin it 😅 | 03:39:53 |

I gave 1k€ yesterday, I hope it helps a bit. For now at least. | 06:42:44 |
| zowoq | Helps a lot, thank you. | 06:47:45 |
