[gentoo-user] emerge 7-9% faster with python 3.11 beta 4
FYI, i've found 'emerge -pvuUD world' is 7-9% faster on my machines when I compare 3.10 to 3.11b4. To achieve this i've added '*/* PYTHON_TARGETS: -* python3_10 python3_11' to package.use on my ~arch systems, then run 'emerge -avuUD portage'. At the end of this python-exec.conf contains; python3.11 python3.10 and when i run 'emerge --version' it shows that 3.11 is being used. Alternatively you could put 'python3.11' in /etc/python-exec/emerge.conf and comment python3.11 out of python-exec.conf if you want 3.10 to be the default and 3.11 to just be used for emerge.

That was a good idea, Michael. Indeed, some Auto settings had crept in. I haven't yet tried booting other media though: that's for later today. --->8 > An EFI MoBo which boots an OS installed in UEFI mode, on a GPT formatted > disk, does not require a CSM or a bios_grub flagged partition. I didn't know that, but CSM was disabled anyway. --->8 > On a 10 year old MoBo I would consider replacing the > NVRAM battery prior to (re)flashing. That's a good idea - thanks. -- Regards, Peter.
