 connor (he/him) (UTC-7) | Does anyone have any recommended reading on ways to implement call-by-name (call-by-need?) in CPP? | 20:51:34 |
| connor (he/him) (UTC-7) | TBH getting a little frustrated with https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/11767 and concerned that to improve performance with data structures that have structural sharing we’ll need to move more data structures over to permit sharing (instead of re-allocating when interacting with STL containers) | 21:00:53 |
 emily | FWIW, even in Haskell it's sometimes faster to use the contiguous, copy-happy vector than fancier structures just because of constant factors – not to discourage you, just saying that I'm not sure the performance trade-off is going to unambiguously be in favour of the elegant functional data structures | 21:05:02 |
| emily | memcpy is a very cheap operation these days | 21:05:22 |

 tomberek | Robert Hensing (roberth): I'm struggling to effectively rebase https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/11367 , do you have any progress on this? | 22:12:12 |
 Robert Hensing (roberth) | tomberek: no progress. Will work on regressions first, esp https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/11699 | 22:20:57 |
| tomberek | I got started, but I think i ran into unrelated build system issues. Will look again after dinner. | 22:21:46 |
| Robert Hensing (roberth) | also this one seems to be a growing papercut https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/10202 | 22:23:46 |

also this one seems to be a growing papercut https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/10202 Did this issue not got resolved with libgit2? | 20:03:06 |

[44.9 MiB DL] unpacking 'github:NixOS/nixpkgs/a04d33c0c3f1a59a2c1cb0c6e34cd24500e5a1dc' into the Git cache
On my company Mac laptop, we run MS Defender (wdavdaemon process), and each time this happens it takes minutes (sometimes 9-10) before it finishes. So I'm trying at first to get some help understanding what is happening during this step. | 18:06:33 |
 K900 | Unpacking a tarball with a lot of files | 18:07:40 |
| tjni | Is it unpacking into the Nix store? | 18:09:58 |
| K900 | Yes | 18:10:09 |
| emily | actually, "the Git cache" isn't in the store | 18:17:31 |
| emily | it's copying it into a Git repository(!) in your ~/.cache | 18:17:40 |
| emily | the unpacking into the store comes after | 18:17:45 |
