Hi Hans-Peter
I can at least answer one of the questions ;-)

Do workers really need swap?
Yes, the build result is extracted from the worker via the swap volume (after finishing, the build process writes the results into the swap device inside the VM, then the obsworker extracts them from "outside" the VM).
minor pitnick, we write the blocklist to the swap device to extract the files directly from the root device.
Ok, but this is somewhat new (in "newer than a few years" ;-)), right?
since 2009...
Because IIRC I had to add big swap devices to VMS building large KIWI images some time ago (probably around OBS 2.6). But maybe I did not even *have to* but just *thought, I'd have to* ;-)
right, that was the case before. But IIRC way before 2.6 ;) -- Adrian Schroeter email: adrian@suse.de SUSE Linux GmbH, GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstraße 5 90409 Nürnberg Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org
