My desktop machine can fully rebuild the game in a few minutes. Azure takes 20-30 minutes. I'm sure many of these cloud services are using way over worked VMs. I'll deal with it because I don't want to set up and maintain my own machines for building. I have a game to make and CI build machines isn't where I want to spend any effort.
@grumpygamer this is an interesting idea and (as presented anyway) economical. Building on scalable "serverless" nodes where you only pay for the non-idle miliseconds. https://blog.nelhage.com/post/building-llvm-in-90s/
Made of Bugs · Building LLVM in 90 seconds using Amazon LambdaLast week, Frederic Cambus wrote about building LLVM quickly on some very large machines, culminating in a 2m37s build on a 160-core ARM machine.
I don’t have a giant ARM behemoth, but I have been working on a tool I call Llama, which lets you offload computational work – including C and C++ builds – onto Amazon Lambda. I decided to see how good it could do at a similar build.
