:Do you have any plans at this point to add an SSD to pkgbox64? Not :surprisingly, I'd like to see what effect this has on bulk builds.
I think bulk builds are more cpu and filesystem-write-bandwidth-limited (due to all the rm -rf / pkg_install's it does), so I don't think swapcache will help a whole lot. It's possible though. I would have to reconfigure pkgbox64. It has two hard drives in it (/build is separate). I'd have to consolidate to one HD to free up one of the internal SATA connectors for the SSD. I think for now lets pass. I have too much on my plate trying to consolidate pkgbox and crater. -Matt Matthew Dillon <dil...@backplane.com>
