Today: """ $ time t/runtests --dump-logs -k t debian/test-out suite:tests -j4 [...] real 5m56.967s user 15m38.488s sys 4m6.696s """ These timings are from my laptop (and not my "heavy-duty" build machine, which was used in all my other benchmarks). The timings were obtained by using the new test-artifact caching in t/runtests. The run building that cache was sadly still horribly slow, but at least it is (mostly) a one-time price now. I will consider this as good as it gets for now and close this bug in 2.5.21. ~Niels -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
