I agree, the ratio between emulation and native is not so great, it is only around 2:1. Having fast I/O attached to your emulator host would compensate to some degree.
For those with slow or unreliable internet, it may be faster to do a build in emulation than to use an XO-1.75 over SSH followed by copying the build. The work flow and techniques of batch processing can be used. You can easily increase the number of builders by adding cheap systems, or more emulators on an SMP system, and start a new builder as soon as you have a new change, without waiting for the previous builders to finish. Don't let the good be the enemy of the perfect. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
