i tend to think the other way around -- the way to prove it is to push it into the CI pipelines on the development branch, rather than trying to prove it on individual developer systems. > One thing more, the "perverse" pre-caching done in add_email_corpus > can be retained -- just do that step *before* going to parallelism... You could do that, but i'm not sure how much you'd gain from it -- its current implementation is all mixed up with the parallelized tests, anyway. If you wanted to propose a concrete re-optimization like this, i'd be happy to review it, test it and report back on the speedup gained. thanks for thinking this through, Tomi! --dkg
