Hi, It is not related with parallel download but on old machines "guix build --no-substitutes" can eat a lot of resources; for example if the package has a lot of dependencies. I would like to be able to list which dependencies I want to build and which I want to substitute. Maybe it is already possible.
Currently, I am doing: guix build `guix show PKG | recsel -R dependencies` guix build PKG --no-substitutes What do you think? All the best, simon
