And this^ is why we can't have nice(1) things.Minor Feature Request:

# synth configure
quick to change the number of builders/jobs before building if I need to use the system at the same time.it's been feature complete since 0.99 --- at least as far as the features I think 1.00 should have that is.
I'm not aware of any bugs right now.
The only thing preventing 1.00 from being tagged is time. If a few days goes by and nobody finds any new problems, I'll do that.
In any case, it's damn close.
I kept the initial settings. That was two builders with two jobs each, for a core2duo with 4GBytes of memory. I switched it to "tmpfs" where possible to keep the wear of the SSD down a bit. Maybe that was a mistake as the swapping will have done some wear on it's own. And I added devel/ccache to the settings.in other words, synth won't prevent somebody from shooting their foot off.
Did you keep the suggested builders/jobs from the initial configuration, or did you modify those settings?
Not this year, I have been a bad boy. For some time.Santa Claus didn't bring a modern machine this year?![]()
I noticed that the log files under /var/log/synth could use some more organization, poudriere for example uses subdirectories with timestamps in their names to separate logs from each build run to their own subdirectories.
It's not really needed but# pkg upgrade -f
is safe to run (if it wasn't we'd have big problems) and usually doesn't take too long. It's needed when you switch from one repository to another or there is a major change in the repository you're using such as a change in the default version of perl.
# pkg upgrade -f
and everything was fast and no errors (1689 packages).
