| hexa | thanks | 13:46:40 |
 7c6f434c | I would say that 5000 packages from many of the lighter ecosystems are still lighter than a single Chromium rebuild. | 13:47:43 |
 K900 | For Hydra, absolutely not | 13:48:29 |
| K900 | Chromium gets thrown on a very wide machines | 13:48:38 |
| K900 | All the other packages get like two cores | 13:48:45 |
| K900 | And the coordinator overhead is unfortunately massive | 13:48:56 |
| 7c6f434c | Well, about wide machine, I wonder if I can find 5000 packages that are still lighter than Gimp, or where the cutoff for getting such a ton of cores lies | 13:50:32 |
| 7c6f434c | Although coordinator overhead can always be high enough to overshadow the builds, maybe | 13:51:08 |
| K900 | Chromium is 2 hours on a big-parallel machine: https://hydra.nixos.org/build/215069962#tabs-buildsteps | 13:51:45 |
| K900 | That's probably comparable to the time it would take Hydra to schedule 5000 no-ops | 13:52:37 |
| 7c6f434c | A few thousands Lisp packages were like an hour on my laptop, I think… | 13:52:44 |
| K900 | Which is admittedly not a good look for Hydra | 13:52:46 |
