hexa | or rather I clicked and it keeps loading 🤔 | 12:35:56 |
Vladimír Čunát | Most likely because eval is in late stage, so a huge postgresql transaction hogs everything involved. | 12:37:12 |
hexa | that tracks | 12:37:46 |
K900 | Did we merge a big rebuild into next | 13:28:07 |

Vladimír Čunát | On Hydra it looked like wasting around 7k jobs. (but part of that might've been due to other changes) Not that bad, considering that it's *-linux jobs. | 13:37:11 |
K900 | Ouch | 13:38:14 |
K900 | Welp | 13:38:15 |
Vladimír Čunát | 16s to display an important man page sounded pretty bad to me. | 13:39:36 |
Vladimír Čunát | Weird. The error did not look transient, but I can't reproduce it locally, so 🤞 | 13:46:40 |
Bart | Not sure if this is the right channel for this, but this build failed because of disk space: https://hydra.nixos.org/build/328832145, would be nice if this would build correctly for the next unstable bump | 13:54:00 |

Vladimír Čunát | Restarted. The big NixOS channels depend on the latest kernel. | 13:59:48 |

hexa | wild | 14:00:08 |
hexa | how often do we have out of space issues these days? | 14:00:21 |
Vladimír Čunát | I do see the tmpfs space missing sometimes. | 14:00:55 |
Vladimír Čunát | Maybe we'd better simply abandon tmpfs for the builds in the infra. | 14:01:16 |
hexa | I thought about backing it with additional swap for spillover | 14:01:21 |
hexa | so we'd get the best of both worlds | 14:01:32 |
Vladimír Čunát | (we'll not in the best channel for this topic, but it doesn't really matter) | 14:01:40 |

Vladimír Čunát | Maybe, if it doesn't spill commonly. | 14:02:13 |
Vladimír Čunát | tmpfs + disk swap is less efficient than normal FS on the same drive in case it does spill. | 14:02:48 |
hexa | is that so? | 14:03:14 |
Vladimír Čunát | At least I think it was that way. Probably due to better work with consecutive storage of files. | 14:03:49 |
Vladimír Čunát | Well, just conclusions here. I think it's unlikely to make i big difference for our use case. Killing tmpfs is just easier. I had done it on some of our machines already. | 14:05:14 |
