@cafkafk:gitter.imcafkafkHow invasive would it be to setup a host as an darwin builder, if it's not expected to be its only/primary use?09:44:37
@cafkafk:gitter.imcafkafkLike, does ofborg just use a list of remote builders, or do the hosts actually need to be dedicated09:45:21
@cafkafk:gitter.imcafkafk * Like, does ofborg just use a list of e.g. remote builders, or do the hosts actually need to be dedicated solely to ofborg09:45:37
@7c6f434c:nitro.chat7c6f434cIt still doesn't use cachix uploads, right?09:47:27
@7c6f434c:nitro.chat7c6f434cIf so, it's basically add a bunch of identifiers into the config, build a package, run the binary in it with that config09:48:18
@7c6f434c:nitro.chat7c6f434cDuring a build it might consume all the CPU you let it (not sure how you limit that on macOS)09:49:00
@7c6f434c:nitro.chat7c6f434cBut like any heavy Nix build09:49:11
@7c6f434c:nitro.chat7c6f434cThe system is pretty OK with intermittent availability09:49:54
@cafkafk:gitter.imcafkafkAlso there is the issue of limited sandboxing on darwin I guess09:50:20
@7c6f434c:nitro.chat7c6f434cBack in the day, the move to internally controlled builders was partially motivated by the complexity of tracking ofBorg versions across the fleet 09:50:57
@7c6f434c:nitro.chat7c6f434cIf the things are more stable today, this issue might no longer be relevant09:51:14
@7c6f434c:nitro.chat7c6f434cDarwin sandboxing is an issue, probably09:51:26
