A hopeful sign for package 'bulk -Ca' like build times (from the EXP run that completed vs. an older one back in Feb.): pkg-2.1.99.5: gohan06 142amd64-default-foo 2025-06-08_06h54m52s built 35989 Elapsed: 57:00:35 pkg-2.0.6: gohan06 141amd64PR284529 2025-02-03_14h15m15s built 36058 Elapsed: 51:15:54 (log files no longer available, so pkg 2.0.6 is presumed from the date involved) So: no large multiplier any more for the large number of packages involved in the examples. For ampere3 (latest aarch64 and armv7, both for 14.* and 13.*) and ampere2 (main aarch64 and armv7, which is also based on latest) this should greatly cut the rough 1 month for each of those servers to complete a cycle of builds. (ampere3: cycles through 4 types of builds and ampere2 cycles through 2 types of builds. ampere2 likely runs a debug kernel.) ampere1 time will likely be cut as well, but it builds quarterly, which changes slower, so each cycle of 4 types of ampere1 based builds generally takes much less elapsed time compared to ampere3. (Not true when the builds happen to approximate 'bulk -Ca' full builds, for example.) So pkg 2.2.0+ looks like it will make builds be significantly more timely, much closer to what pkg 2.0.6 was like. === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.comhome | help
