Hi André, André Batista <nan...@riseup.net> skribis:

I just tried ‘guix pull -s i686-linux’ for commit e641d707e1ec8de2bfc658dcd1757360300aa509 and it passed! This is certainly due to the reduced heap usage in Guile 3.0.8. However, while building /gnu/store/87mqnqwxqbcidbx5bpyrq9xpxmhw1035-guix-packages-base.drv we’re still peaking at 2.6G resident—only 7% less than before (the packages files have probably grown in the meantime), so we cannot claim victory yet. > Previously I had tried to move rust-tokio* package definitions to > another file but it wasn't enough to work around it. > > While parsing crates-io.scm, it also occured to me to try to > create a 'crates-crypto.scm' and move all crypto related definitions > there.

I think splitting the file would still be useful, yes; I don’t think anyone is working on it. Another thing to consider would be to balance things a bit better, by arranging so that fewer modules are in ‘guix-packages-base’: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ find /gnu/store/ry7fcdq7nwqaca6vanzc5d6z22njr92p-guix-packages-base |wc -l 331 $ find /gnu/store/45izww13rx5lll4pl0vj8xl0633bkzh7-guix-packages |wc -l 212 $ find /gnu/store/ry7fcdq7nwqaca6vanzc5d6z22njr92p-guix-packages-base -name crates\*go /gnu/store/ry7fcdq7nwqaca6vanzc5d6z22njr92p-guix-packages-base/gnu/packages/crates-graphics.go /gnu/store/ry7fcdq7nwqaca6vanzc5d6z22njr92p-guix-packages-base/gnu/packages/crates-io.go /gnu/store/ry7fcdq7nwqaca6vanzc5d6z22njr92p-guix-packages-base/gnu/packages/crates-gtk.go --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- For the record, ‘guix-packages-base’ is computed in (guix self) as the closure of (gnu packages base).
