Hi all, You can rent aarch64 hardware on ec2 now - I built pypy3 7.1.1 on an a1.large (2 vCPUs, 4GB RAM, ~$37/mo on-demand) using an armhf chroot. It took about 140 minutes wall clock time - I did need to create a swap file as my first attempt failed with a memory error:
real 139m41.253s user 118m12.756s sys 1m4.388s (armhf)ubuntu@ip-172-31-xx-xxx:~$ pypy3-build/opt/pypy3/bin/pypy3 Python 3.6.1 (784b254d669919c872a505b807db8462b6140973, Jun 25 2019, 16:45:29) [PyPy 7.1.1-beta0 with GCC 7.3.0] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. And now for something completely different: ``snow, snow, snow, snow'' >>>> 1 + 2 3 The same script on an i7 laptop with Ubuntu 18.04 took around 64 minutes: real 63m58.293s user 53m31.992s sys 0m17.487s I had also tried a build on a Raspberry Pi3b with an usb ssd as a swap disk (this machine only has 1GB of RAM) - this got pretty far, but failed after around 4 hours with a memory error. A Pi 4b with 4GB of RAM would compile it I imagine, so this might make a very cheap buildbot host for that purpose. m > On 2019-06-21 02:41, Matti Picus wrote: > > On 21/6/19 9:12 am, Gelin Yan wrote: > > Hi All > > > > I just noticed there are no links for downloading pypy 7.0 for Arm > > version.
