Very interesting Tom.

Are there any figures for build time versus increase in processor cores? It would be interesting to see what the immediate performance gain is for a build with a low number of additional cores and then where it tops out? > The whole > process is completely peer-to-peer with no single node in charge - in > that context, a more appropriate name for it might be 'BuildTorrent'. A "BuildTorrent". I like it! Cheers, Alex _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
