Cool, please share your numbers with us once you have them. Meanwhile, I've patched my tinderbox to package with PKG_NOCOMPRESS=1 and then use `archivers/pbzip2' to compress the file. This cut down the time to package `devel/llvm40' from previous ~50 minutes to just three without touching any libarchive(3) or pkg(8) code. I guess I can live with that until libarchive(3) and/or pkg(8) gain proper support of multicore-aware efficient modern compression algorithm(s). ./danfe _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
