remember that our http: proxy is set up in a way that it should not make much of a diff... The thing is that we have to transfer a complete linux tree to the slave node no matter what. Whether you --reference something on master or use the master hosted squid shouldn't make any significant net difference. So bottom line: I don't think you will win much, but I am happy to be proofen wrong. -- Alexander Sack Technical Director, Linaro Platform Teams http://www.linaro.org | Open source software for ARM SoCs http://twitter.com/#!/linaroorg - http://www.linaro.org/linaro-blog _______________________________________________ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev
