• A notable ampere4 port-package build time comparison/contrast for 14.3 vs. 15.0 for electron37-37.10.3 and qt6-webengine-6.10.1_1

    ampere4 building 143arm64-quarterly:
    Host OSVERSION: 1600007
    Jail OSVERSION: 1403000


    electron37-37.10.3 32:47:14
    qt6-webengine-6.10.1_1 21:44:03

    See: <https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/ampere4/build.html?mastername=143arm64-quarterly&build=6fef647fdec5>


    ampere4 building 150arm64-quarterly:
    Host OSVERSION: 1600007
    Jail OSVERSION: 1500068


    electron37-37.10.3 34:38:40
    qt6-webengine-6.10.1_1 30:27:11

    See: https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/ampere4/build.html?mastername=150arm64-quarterly&build=6fef647fdec5


    One or more things about 1403000 vs. 1500068 makes a big difference in qt6-webengine-6.10.1_1 times (in comparison/contrast to
    electron37-37.10.3 build times).

    Something about 15.0-RELEASE greatly adds time to the
    qt6-webengine-6.10.1_1 build.

    It looks likely that the grand total times for the port-package builds
    for 14.3 vs. 15.0 will also show a large difference once the
    143arm64-quarterly completes.


    Note: All that is for builds of the same 6fef647fdec5 ports tree materials.

    (I should have put that in <>'s.)

    Something about 15.0-RELEASE greatly adds time to the
    qt6-webengine-6.10.1_1 build.

    Change of quote order to avoid confusions, moving the below from the
    bottom of the original message:



    Note: All that is for builds of the same 6fef647fdec5 ports tree
    materials.



    Such is not true for the below comparison/contrast.


    It looks likely that the grand total times for the port-package builds
    for 14.3 vs. 15.0 will also show a large difference once the 143arm64-quarterly completes.

    Actually, since the context for the 2 above is an incremental build
    overall for each, such an comparison/contrast would not be so good.


    The prior (nearly?) from-scratch builds available for getting times:


    143arm64-quarterly built 35544 failed 118 : 60:06:37
    Host OSVERSION: 1600007
    Jail OSVERSION: 1403000

    <https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/builds/default:quarterly:143arm64:fce61163b43e:ampere4>


    150arm64-quarterly built 35501 failed 154 : 78:25:36
    Host OSVERSION: 1600000
    Jail OSVERSION: 1500068

    <https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/builds/default:quarterly:150arm64:0d8fad0cea6d:ampere4>


    So: 15.0-RELEASE had fewer built, more failed, and the longer time by a
    notable factor compared to 14.3-RELEASE. Both had chromium build/timeout
    its build after about 48 hrs.
