This is on 𝐚𝐦𝐝𝟔𝟒. You can have 24𝐓B RAM boxen these days. Assigning 8GB to a buildd is a configuration error -- it's not about building package X at home or porting it to a bitty box. >> The proposal is to turn on LTO by default on most 64bit release >> architectures. As doko CCed -ports: With the hat of one of riscv64 porters on: hardware that is deemed sufficient for buildds has 16 GB RAM and nvme, with very slow CPUs. Thus, please include riscv64 among LTO archs, barring compiler issues of course. Meow! -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ What kind of a drug are "base" and "red pill"?
