Jamie | so while it succeeds for me, idk if i'm actually testing something different | 06:59:38 |
Jamie | hm yeah there's some evaluation impurity i guess? it matches if i evaluate it from /nix/store/v316zxg1w7x8343xs9lmhkh5hvjmprsq-source | 07:02:26 |
Vladimír Čunát | .git/ or something? Most likely no significant difference. I've been reproducing tests like this for years. | 07:03:39 |
Jamie | cool repro with the matching hash succeeded | 07:03:56 |
Jamie | yeah i suppose so | 07:03:59 |
Jamie | yay and it succeeded on hydra | 07:04:31 |
Vladimír Čunát | Yes, both tests succeeded now. | 07:04:42 |
Jamie | now for chromuium :D | 07:04:54 |
Vladimír Čunát | Yes, that will be several hours at least, I'm afraid. | 07:05:12 |
Jamie | i wonder if my local chromium build on my desktop will beat it | 07:05:26 |
Vladimír Čunát | Yes, that's not so hard. The machine is doing multiple large builds at once, and it's a rather old server. | 07:06:31 |
Jamie | yeah:( | 07:06:49 |
Jamie | and when you write your software with the intention of building it on the distributed compilation infrastructure of google... :P | 07:08:09 |
nf | can someone walk me through why most of the builds of ungoogled-chromium have 1s build times, despite the hashes being different each time? | 11:28:58 |
nf | never mind, i'm getting there | 11:41:25 |
nf | if anyone here has write access to nixos-search, please approve/merge https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-search/pull/330 | 19:17:39 |
andi- | try in #marketing:nixos.org and/or @garbas:matrix.org | 19:27:35 |
lukegb (he/him) | Can we add bigger-parallel to make chromium builds faster :P | 19:29:21 |
lukegb (he/him) | (or remove big-parallel from wendy, I guess, but that's less funny) | 19:29:30 |
Sandro | In reply to @lukegb:zxcvbnm.ninja (or remove big-parallel from wendy, I guess, but that's less funny) yes please :) | 19:33:03 |
andi- | Didn't that happen already and was reverted? | 19:38:52 |
Vladimír Čunát | Wendy was removed for a time. Then there was a bug resulting we had no big-parallel machine in the farm, so as a quick fixup in the meantime wendy was brought back... and so far it's stayed :-) | 20:28:59 |
Vladimír Čunát | (even though that bug was resolved quite quickly afterwards) | 20:29:19 |
Vladimír Čunát | * Wendy was removed for a time. Then there was a bug resulting we had no big-parallel machine in the farm (for x86_64-linux), so as a quick fixup in the meantime wendy was brought back... and so far it's stayed :-) | 20:35:15 |
Sandro | that means we can remove it again? | 20:46:47 |
Vladimír Čunát | AFAIK it can be removed, as we do have others with the required features, but it maybe provides a noticeable part of the overall power. | 21:22:06 |

| Reventlov joined the room. | 07:18:55 |
Sandro | how long do we wait extra when chromium lands on wendy again? half a day? | 08:30:24 |
Vladimír Čunát | Those latest builds on wendy were taking roughly one day. (though it surely depends on circumstances) The "wait extra" might only really apply when Hydra is relatively idle. | 08:52:34 |
Sandro | I meant this more like how much longer it takes to build chromium on wendy compared to some of the newer servers | 08:53:09 |
