 Alex | GHC takes 20h. Entirely justified. | 18:13:46 |
 Tristan Ross | Currently building the kernel | 18:13:47 |
| Tristan Ross | Lol, GHC on my Ampere Altra Max is done fast | 18:14:05 |
| Alex | I'd believe it, <2h on my desktop. | 18:14:20 |
| Tristan Ross | Takes like 15 minutes for me | 18:14:52 |
| Tristan Ross | Most packages on Ampere don't go over an hour. | 18:15:14 |
 @lotte:chir.rs | the most annoying package i do regularly raccompile is a patched rpi kernel | 18:19:10 |

| Tristan Ross | Fun, cpython is building | 01:30:55 |
| Tristan Ross | It's linking right now and it's been linking for at least 20 minutes lol | 01:31:11 |

@rosscomputerguy:matrix.org one week continuous building? best advertisement for visionfive 2 i've heard i've had zero stability issue on my (also 1.5GHz) star64 with this passive heatsink | 10:40:46 |

 misuzu | I'm using this case for my vf2 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005677652489.html | 12:25:09 |

| Tristan Ross | 1,693 derivations built now. | 02:29:05 |
| Tristan Ross | 216 hours | 02:31:04 |
| Tristan Ross | Averages 7.8 derivations an hour | 02:31:33 |
| Tristan Ross | It is built | 05:49:23 |
 DavHau | Was this native vor with emulation? | 06:43:50 |
|  oak 🏳️🌈♥️ changed their display name from oak 🫱⭕🫲 to oak. | 10:58:24 |

| Tristan Ross | Native, I can't do emulation | 13:44:07 |
| Tristan Ross | Emulation doesn't quite work with a 64k page size on Ampere | 13:44:18 |
| Tristan Ross | Cross compiling though took 40 minutes on Ampere | 13:44:30 |
| Tristan Ross | Native building took like 9 hours and 30 minutes | 13:44:43 |
| Tristan Ross | * Native building took like 9 days and 3 hours | 21:32:37 |

| DavHau | I'm cross compiling my starfive as well. 9 days sounds crazy. Is this due to slow flash IO, or is the CPU the limiting factor? | 03:22:39 |
| Alex | IIRC it's mostly CPU-limited. | 03:34:10 |
| DavHau | Wow, this sounds unreal? Is it just that compilers etc. are not optimized to run on riscv? | 03:53:33 |
 dramforever | the visionfive 2 is just not a great cpu | 05:13:48 |
| dramforever | i mean the jh7110 on it | 05:14:35 |
