I just checked the substitute cache in /var/guix/substitute/cache and these files are small (3K only!). So, all that pain to fetch a 3K file :). I thought it was network related, but it is generating this cache file that is expensive. So, yes, a fast server may help greatly. And are you sure the server is able to serve concurrent requests? Maybe the SQL database is blocking somehow? > In the meantime, anyone can run ‘guix publish’ and pass the URL via > ‘--substitute-urls’. :) Pj.
