Ahem, yeah, so I'm not allowed to request a short description
on how to use poudiere in a resource constrained environment?
The environment isn't constrained by poudriere but by the ports you want
to compile. When compiling libreoffice or chromium or firefox I don't
think there is anything else that can be done than setting poudriere to
run no more than 1 job at a time. Poudriere itself doesn't take any
additional resources, it's just a dedicated jail and a bunch of scripts.
I did not state that the "environment is constrained by poudriere".
The environment is contrained due to resource limits. If you
only have 1 Gb of memory and 5-10 GB diskspace, then using poudriere
with zfs and jails is a nonstarter. Yes, I'm aware that zfs is not
required. Can't find info on whether jails can be avoided. Having
say lang/llvm40 installed in /usr/local and in a jail would consumes
2.6 GB. That's 1 port!
Would temporarily spinning up an EC2 instance on AWS be an option? It's
priced per hour so shouldn't cost much to compile required packages? On
the other hand, a desktop with 4GB of RAM and 250GB HDD costs $50-100.
I sometimes think if setting up a build system where someone would be
able to build ports with their own customized options could become
popular...
