Eelco wrote recently, that the current approach reached a limit. Maybe working with more branches containing fewer changes and distributing the build load to different hydras could work. At this point I'm interested in how much work is involved in setting up and maintaining hydra and what resources hydra currently has which we drive to a limit. > Or be a "slave" of the official buildfarm (in which case all users have > to trust your server as well?) I'm not sure of the powers of 'nix-store --verify-path', but so far I was under the (wrong) impression, that nix has methods that do not require trust into the build farm (provider). -- Florian Friesdorf <[email protected]> GPG FPR: 7A13 5EEE 1421 9FC2 108D BAAF 38F8 99A3 0C45 F083 Jabber/XMPP: [email protected] IRC: chaoflow on freenode,ircnet,blafasel,OFTC
