emily | I don't think Hydra can realistically use machines that the infra team doesn't have total control over and that don't have KVM | 02:28:45 |
tomberek | CI is the most obvious. Nix-community might benefit. Or even dedicated access for a team, stdenv perhaps? | 02:30:23 |
emily | this is nix-community :) | 02:31:39 |
zowoq | Putting another machine towards ofborg or using it as an secondary builder (not replacing the current hetzner build box) may be the better option. Saving a bit of money would be nice but if it was the only x86 community builder not having kvm/ipmi access to it would probably be a recurring problem. | 03:03:19 |
liberodark | I am in contact with some person from nixos. | 08:49:56 |
liberodark | But for nixos-community I learned about the builder issue only yesterday. | 08:50:31 |
liberodark | I was advised to talk to zowoq. | 08:50:53 |
liberodark | I hope this answers your question? | 08:51:26 |
Gaétan Lepage | In reply to @liberodark:matrix.org But for nixos-community I learned about the builder issue only yesterday. nix-community | 09:23:38 |
liberodark | * But for nix-community I learned about the builder issue only yesterday. | 09:24:22 |
liberodark | fixed | 09:24:31 |

emily | Gaétan Lepage: are you using the Darwin builder right now? | 18:25:27 |
Gaétan Lepage | Yes | 21:46:26 |
Gaétan Lepage | Sorry, you want me to kill the job ? | 21:46:38 |
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 |
