@khaneliman:matrix.orgAustin Horstmanleft it on overnight.. yikes14:00:27
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeSwift was even worse.14:02:01
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI say increase the Hydra timeout for Firefox to 24h or something like that.14:02:24
@khaneliman:matrix.orgAustin HorstmanAlright, was curious what changed recently. If that's expected it's good to know. agree that it would need an adjustment on build server if its going to be the new length of builds for it14:03:55
@ihar.hrachyshka:matrix.orgIhar HrachyshkaI'm also looking at enabling pgo...14:16:15
@ihar.hrachyshka:matrix.orgIhar Hrachyshka Austin Horstman: note that community builder is limited to cores (2 per job?) so it's very slow for firefox regardless. 14:29:46
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveHow long did swift take you? I am curious..14:29:48
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve* How long did swift take you to build? I am curious..14:29:59
@khaneliman:matrix.orgAustin Horstmani used my own mac for that14:30:03
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI killed it after eight to ten hours. It wasn’t done yet. I may enable it for the release, but there is no way I can work with cycle times that bad.14:30:47
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeThere is actually a flag for ld64 to limit LTO because it’s too slow even for upstream.14:31:18
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveI would say it would take a day to build at least right?14:31:45
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve* I would say it would take a day to build at least right just assuming?14:31:57
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveI was thinking of giving it a crack of a build overnight while I am sleeping.14:32:16
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeMaybe. For Hydra, that’s going to be even worse. They’re still using M1s. I have an M3 Max with more RAM.14:32:44
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve* I was thinking of giving it a crack of a build overnight while I am sleeping just to try and see If I can spot any issues.14:32:49
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveI have a M4 macbook pro with 16gb of ram.14:33:05
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveI hope that is enough...14:33:22
