My CI script always tries tools, libs, release, iso-image, install-image, live-image as separate steps without X11 (except zaurus/earm, which needs it for the install-/live-image). > > Does that mean my amd64 system (Ryzen 5900X) is 1.7 times faster than > yours? ;) The VAX builds usually take about 5h wall time. That host is a HP ProLiant DL360e Gen8, 2x E5-2450L, 64 GB RAM, 3 TB HDD. Would be nice to have a really modern system, but that came from my employer and was just around for free. (5h here also implies that I usually run 14 jobs in parallel overall.) > I know our math is completely based on the wrong kind of measurements, but > it's fun to wonder. lol :) So yes, your box is (at least) 1.7 to 2 times faster.
