I have this Jenkins job which builds a UFS image built for mips using the MALTA kernel config: https://jenkins.freebsd.org/job/FreeBSD_HEAD_mips32_be/ I am using this invocation of QEMU to boot the image with 256MB RAM: https://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/MipsEmulation#Configuring_QEMU I am now trying to build /usr/ports/devel/kyua inside the VM, so that I can do "cd /usr/tests ; kyua test" to run all the tests. However, building kyua and all its dependencies (atf, sqlite, lua, lutok) is taking a really long time inside this VM, on the order of many hours. Is there something I can do to boost performance so I can at least build kyua faster in this VM? -- Craig
