hi,
i've to ask it again what i already asked a few times. is there any way
to speed up mock build?
here is a simple example when i build gstreamer-plugins-bad-free on
rhel-6.2:
-----------------------
2012-05-30 00:45:24,367 - Mock Version: 1.1.22
2012-05-30 00:45:24,377 - State Changed: unpacking root cache
2012-05-30 00:45:27,610 - State Changed: cleaning yum metadata
2012-05-30 00:45:27,639 - State Changed: running yum
2012-05-30 00:45:30,914 - State Changed: unlock buildroot
2012-05-30 00:45:31,026 - State Changed: setup
2012-05-30 00:50:09,980 - State Changed: build
2012-05-30 00:52:34,094 - State Changed: end
-----------------------
as you can see it takes about 5 minutes to setup the buildroot
environment, while it takes 2.5 minutes to build it. so it's still 2
times more the extra stuff compared to the build. even in a case of a
'long' build package (some other package build less then a minutes).
disk space and cache size is not a problem.
any kind of tipp would be welcome.
Are you using the tmpfs plugin? That improves things significantly if
you can spare the RAM. Here's the mock config options I use:
config_opts['plugin_conf']['tmpfs_enable'] = True
config_opts['plugin_conf']['tmpfs_opts']['required_ram_mb'] = 4096
config_opts['plugin_conf']['tmpfs_opts']['max_fs_size'] = '2048m'
we just plug 4GB more ram and test the above. unfortunately in this case
eg thunderbird build will fail with "No space left on device". it seems
mock not use this space very clever way. and it's rather hard to always
check the build results and modify the conf...
