Vladimír Čunát | Because I can see the huge difference between e.g. trunk and trunk-combined. | 17:06:42 |
Vladimír Čunát | We're spending a surprising amount of Hydra's "real time" on the added tests. | 17:07:04 |
Vladimír Čunát | Hydra's eval itself tends not to be a real bottleneck. (though in CI it would be bad) | 17:08:03 |

dish [Fox/It/She] | is there no way to parallelize the transaction by splitting it? | 17:35:27 |
Vladimír Čunát | It would certainly help with the deadlocks and blocking other updates to the DB. | 17:36:33 |
Vladimír Čunát | It often happens that Hydra stalls for several minutes because of such huge write transaction just happening. | 17:37:14 |
K900 | There definitely is | 17:39:53 |

hexa | lol, I remember getting yelled at for nuking old aliases a while ago | 17:40:36 |
hexa | the tl;dr is … just do it quietly? | 17:40:56 |
hexa | or wait until we have a nixpkgs core team that can make that call? | 17:41:25 |
Vladimír Čunát | runCommandNoCC will surely have some usage outside nixpkgs, too. | 17:41:50 |
hexa | it was about e.g. pkgconfig = pkg-config back then | 17:42:07 |
emily | it wasn't very quiet IMO… it's only ones that were already in 25.05 | 17:45:19 |
