Hey Nicholas!
NB> How long did it take to compile?
ftp://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/slackware/slackware64-current/source/k/kernel-c
onfigs/config-6.11.5-generic.x64, a AMD Ryzen 7 5800U ( 8 cores, 2 threads per core ), with make
-j16 and cpu govenor set to performance, it takes 26 minutes, 6.672
seconds.
NB> So it would be interesting to know if things got any faster.
It seems to me that when I was doing kv-4.x.x on this same
machine it took only around 5 minutes but that was using a leaner config.
Too much has changed since then and to be honest I prefer the kv-6.x.x
over any earlier source especially considering newer glibc, gcc etc. For
me any additional compile times is more than worth it given the final
result. If speed was the only consideration then something like a
threadripper would be the way to go. :-)
NB> Have you heard any big and/or exciting things about kernel
NB> version 7?
Not yet but I haven`t gone looking. I am getting too old for all
this but I don`t seem to be abandoning all of the work I put in to
get this far. Obviously I am too stubborn for my own good. The
neighbours have been happy with my wireless work which I keep telling myself
to give the old heave-ho. Too much crap in that department but as
long as everyone is happy with it who am I to argue.
Right now my favorite distraction is making 4K digital movies. What
a hog that is but I must admit I am having fun with the idea
especially given mpv and libdrm.
Also I want to move Little Mikey`s Brain over to a Epyc based
server and virtualize it. It has a spare GHz network chip I should be
able to farm out to it.
Life is good,
Maurice
