Hello
With the opensuse build service [obs] getting more usage every day
I wonder if this would make a diffence :-
1. Use solid state disks [ssd] to improve build times of package rpms
on, perhaps point the BuildRoot or _tmppath to the ssd's
Reason for asking.
Improve the packaging times during busy times on obs.
Cheers Glenn.

Unfortunately there is a cost associated, but it would be cool to get
a bunch of fusion IO cards and see how they perform.
Here is a youtube video of 1 fusion IO card handling 4500 movies
streaming at once. If I understood it right.

Yeah, it is pretty cool, I use an Intel SSD X25-M and is indeed a
pleasure to build on it.
Unfortunately such deployment in the OBS can get quite expensive.

I've not had time to dig into it but I understand that the MeeGo OBS used SSDs
(not, AFAIK, Intel ones) and they failed so much they were replaced.
I'm not sure who has more info about this.
So the message is : try it for a while before buying a whole bunch of them.
(it is still on my todo list).

More info from the company which did above demo
http://www.iomax.com.au/products.htm
See the links to the areas covered which covered
- 4,500 DVDs playing from a single ioDrive Octal.
- Running 512 Virtual machines running on one VMWare View host.
- Over 1,000 DVDs playing from a single ioDrive.
Also http://iomax.com.au/performance.htm
Interesting indeed.
I wonder if one could be tried out ?

Clearly buying SSD costs money.
But buying a $1000 250 GB SSD for one of the build servers would be
cheaper than buying a whole new server.
So the next time an expansion to the build farm is budgeted, I hope
getting SSDs for the buildroot is considered as an option.
If the thread from 6 months ago is still accurate, having a SSD might
double the compile speed of a build farm node.
Don't forget that workers are very, very write-heavy. This is not the
best
I/O pattern for SSD; and of course the vast majority of data written
during
a build-preparation is never re-read.
