Hello folks,
Is there any kind of standards/recommendations about CPAN build_dir
configuration regarding disk space available?
In order to speed things up on OpenBSD, I'm using a MFS filesystem which is
allocated exclusively for build_dir. Of course, since it RAM, I don't have much
space for it (~1G).
Even with an aggressive control of cache ("clean_cache_after => 50" for
CPAN::Reporter::Smoker), in some situations I'm still getting all build_dir
storage consumed, which of course cause reports to fail.
I was able to identify distributions that uses a lot of storage during it's
build... not sure if they should look for a different filesystem (/tmp ?) in
cases like that.
Another things is how to identify those distributions... is there any way to
measure this?
Thanks!
