Stas | works perfectly, albeit slower | 10:29:59 |
Stas | * works perfectly, albeit slower than native of course | 10:30:05 |
Alyssa Ross | a VM set up as a remote builder is also like it's not there, if you're doing Nix builds, and much more reliable | 10:30:30 |
Stas | I am considering it, as I want the original 32bit arm too. Hetzner's Neoverse cores do not support the old isa though :( | 10:31:29 |
Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | i wonder if such a vm would alleviate the cpu cache thrashing that i have noticed with qemu-user because you can effectively limit and/or isolate the emulation to specific cpu cores | 10:36:46 |

Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | (i presume that is what it is, when running large gcc compile tasks in qemu-riscv it would make video games stutter) | 10:37:32 |

dramforever | qemu user is so far from working perfectly | 05:44:23 |
dramforever | if it works for you, it's because the hard parts have been done for you on native | 05:45:32 |
dramforever | you can use cgroups and stuff to limit the nix daemon, if that's what you want | 05:46:11 |
dramforever | IME the part of building with qemu-user that you can get away with is something like building the nixos config for an arm64 server on a x86_64 machine | 05:47:32 |
dramforever | where it's just generating a few files | 05:47:41 |
