am i holding it wrong or does the nix repl editor not even try to do unicode? Nix doesn’t even try to do unicode | 10:12:53 |
 dramforever | i was more wondering how this could possibly happen | 21:02:03 |

| arrowd | Eelco Hi, I see you merged a PR in https://github.com/NixOS/patchelf
Could you also please take a look at https://github.com/NixOS/patchelf/pull/638 and https://github.com/NixOS/patchelf/pull/636 ? These should be fairly simple to review. | 08:31:08 |

 pveierland | Is it intentional that xz files are created as a single compressed block from nix? | 08:54:05 |

| pveierland | I'd guess it could relate to determinism and avoiding additional parameters. | 09:01:02 |
| pveierland | * | 09:03:08 |
 flokli | FileHash is not verified at all, and some people looked into using multi-block for various usecases. | 09:06:47 |
| flokli | In the end the conclusion was that xz isn't really worth it, which is why we're now with zstd. | 09:07:11 |
| pveierland | Is zstd in use on cache.nixos.org now? Does it support ranged reads? | 09:08:12 |
| flokli | zstd is in use. Don't know if it allows ranged reads. | 09:08:53 |
| pveierland | Do you know why it was chosen over brotli? | 09:09:40 |
| flokli | No | 09:09:57 |
| flokli | Ideally all the compression parts would be a content-encoding concern, so range requests wouldn't need to be complicated at all. That's what snix-nar-bridge does, it sends Compression: none and relies on libcurl to request zstd-compressed. That of course not realistic for the c.n.o situation, where we currently serve from the bucket "directly", as it would be even more costly than it already is. | 09:11:57 |
