 emily | going to supported but not required makes sense to me then. I wonder if it makes sense to slightly decrease the per-job core count at the same time in exchange for the extra jobs you get. (sorry, this is just curiosity on my part, not trying to meddle with the decisions :) ) | 14:14:35 |
 Myria | Uhhh, it seems the problems I had with stdenv on the gcc-15.3.0 changes is also affecting staging-next. gfortran is failing build on aarch64-darwin (https://hydra.nixos.org/build/333247000) but locally it builds for me whe I ignore the cache | 14:16:46 |
| Myria | Actually, may just be a gc error | 14:17:43 |
| Myria | But this likely causes a large amount of failures | 14:18:00 |

 K900 | Restarted, for now | 14:18:09 |
| K900 | Mic92 do we have anything for the GC errors yet? | 14:18:18 |
| K900 | Cause I feel like this cycle will be heck | 14:18:26 |
| hexa | bumped | 14:18:34 |
| K900 | If we have to deal with this the entire time | 14:18:46 |
| hexa | https://github.com/NixOS/infra/pull/1104 was supposed to resolve that iirc | 14:19:15 |
| emily | why is it only happening on Darwin(?) | 14:21:27 |
| K900 | It's not | 14:21:49 |
| K900 | But the darwins are slower so more likely to hit it | 14:21:56 |
| emily |
the darwins
you mean the Darwin
| 14:22:22 |
| hexa | gc is hourly on linux | 14:22:43 |
| hexa | and twice per hour on darwin | 14:22:47 |
| hexa | 🤡 | 14:22:50 |
| emily | do we really need to GC that often? | 14:23:24 |
| hexa | we can try and reduce | 14:23:56 |
| K900 | I assume those have less disk also? | 14:23:57 |
| emily | oh I just mean in general | 14:24:03 |
| hexa | but fixing gc was annoying for the small macs with little disk | 14:24:08 |
| hexa | the linux builders have between 2x2 and 2x4TB NVME | 14:24:46 |
| hexa | the macs have like 256 for the hetzner ones | 14:24:58 |
| hexa | and more for the oakhost ones | 14:25:04 |
| hexa | we can try fast-nix-gc | 14:26:19 |
| hexa | what would it fix? I guess gcing faster would be benefitial to the nodes anyhow | 14:26:59 |
| hexa | but the window during which we'd gc would become smaller | 14:27:10 |
