zrsk | * Just out of curiosity: these RISC-0 VMs allow emulating multiple processors? I've no idea what this other project I'm working on uses under the hood, I believe something custom. But I know it has the big limitation that the VM is single core. | 18:34:01 |

raitobezarius | No idea | 18:35:48 |
raitobezarius | I'm not a RISC-0 person | 18:35:58 |
raitobezarius | I suppose you cannot really have determinism with SMP though | 18:36:10 |
zrsk | In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org I suppose you cannot really have determinism with SMP though even if it's emulated? (don't know anything about this topic) | 18:45:24 |
raitobezarius | I don't know what you mean by emulated or see how it is relevant here | 18:45:50 |
raitobezarius | But if you linearize all the executions, then, yes, SMP can be deterministic | 18:46:05 |
raitobezarius | But it's not really SMP | 18:46:12 |
zrsk | anyway if someone wants to satisfy my curiosity and try to build a random derivation (I don't know, nix or hello maybe?) on an SBC and give me the time it takes (just the order of magnitude is enough) I would be grateful | 18:48:35 |
zrsk | In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org I don't know what you mean by emulated or see how it is relevant here Yeah don't worry, I've no really idea what I'm talking about probably. Thank you very much however :) | 18:49:21 |
zrsk | Anyway I don't know if somebody already tried it but building RISC-V docker images with dockerTools.buildImage worked like a charm. I was impressed (as always) by Nix. | 18:53:35 |

- hello: 2m dominated by configure, likely faster on nvme
- nix: I started the build, I'll let you know tomorrow

I'll let you know tomorrow Not the best premises lol
Just tried hello and it takes 136s for me, probably using a Star64 as a builder is not worth it. In my case the disk speed wasn't the bottleneck surely (it's a fast nvme).

Your work there is great, do you keep images updated? Don't you host a cache also? | 23:52:18 |

Pratham Patel (you can mention me) | In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org Then you can buy the MilkV Milk-V Pioneer? | 02:50:34 |
raitobezarius | yes | 02:50:41 |
Pratham Patel (you can mention me) | There’s also Oasis, lunching in under a year. No adjusted ETA after the bump in memory bus. | 02:51:47 |
raitobezarius | there's also new JH chips around | 02:54:25 |
raitobezarius | and the new SG too | 02:54:30 |
Pratham Patel (you can mention me) | Yeah, JH8100 should be as fast as RK3588, at least in raw computer. Which is what we need for compilation. | 02:56:25 |
Pratham Patel (you can mention me) | *raw compute power | 02:59:09 |
Pratham Patel (you can mention me) | sorry, I just woke up :) | 02:59:17 |
fgaz | In reply to @aciceri:nixos.dev Your work there is great, do you keep images updated? Don't you host a cache also? Not yet but I plan to | 06:32:01 |
fgaz | * I upload a new image from time to time. I don't have a cache yet (that's why I build fat images) but I plan to | 07:31:58 |
