#

do you have this line set in /etc/makepkg.conf

#

how many cores/threads does you cpu have

#

htop or something works

#

or nproc

#

yes it's the number of threads to use while building

#

mine is set to just use how ever many threads i have

#

which i happen to have 16

#

you can set it to slightly more than you have, like maybe 22, and you might see a slight speed increase, but i would probably just do MAKEFLAGS="-j$(nproc)"

#

considering you were using 2, it should be about 10x faster

#

how much ram do you have

#

another option for building faster is building the package in ramdisk

#

yes

#

idk if you have enough ram for that

#

depends how much godot uses in the build process

#

it's where you copy all the source code files to somewhere like /tmp instead of physical storage

#

/tmp is a tmpfs which means everything in there is stored entirely in ram

#

no

#

well it's risky in the sense that you might run out of ram

#

depends on the package

#

chromium can take 32 GB of ram building with 18 threads

#

i know from experience

#

cerulean trout well it's risky in the sense that you might run out of ram

this would just make you start swapping and make your pc laggy until you kill the build process

#

or until it finishes

#

ok

#

no

#

you either use a lot of cpu by building with a lot of threads (and build faster)

#

or you use less threads (less cpu) and it builds slower

#

the kernel won't really have an impact on this

#

of upir

#

fuck

#

wrong keys

#

if you're installing the same aur package repeatedly it shouldn't download anything

#

it should just be unpacking a tarball or cloning a bare git repo

#

that's fine

#

mine gets to like 80-85 under stress tests

#

yes except the GPU has hundreds or thousands of "threads"

#

they're more complicated than that

#

you can't compile code with your gpu though

#

GPUs are good at heavy amounts of math with not a lot of branching

#

compilation involves a lot of branching

#

cerulean trout GPUs are good at heavy amounts of math with not a lot of branching

also GPUs are good at doing the same set of operations on different sets of data at the same time

#

you can't parallelize compilation like that

#

it's looking for version 7.0.10 but found version 7.0.9 installed

#

when's the last time you did a system update

#

dotnet-sdk is in official repos

#

but you already had it right

#

should be the same thing

#

discord shouldn't be taking very much cpu

cerulean trout Aug 18, 2023, 4:20 PM

#

you might have to manually install an updated version or wait until it's updated in the repos
