Subject: Sharing sstate
Date: Tue, 27 Sep 2011 08:22:28 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E81DC24.8020307@mlbassoc.com> (raw)

I'd really like to be able to share sstate effectively.  One problem I have with
it is the size - for a build of my system (something similar to core-image-sato
on BeagleBoard), the sstate cache for a build-from-scratch is nearly 5GB!  Not
exactly simple to share across sites.

It seems to me that maybe I don't need to share everything.  For example, the
webkit-gtk package:

$ ls -l sstate-cache/*webkit-gtk*

Would it be possible to only share part of this, maybe the "package" file?
It seems to me that this could make the needed (shared) cache much smaller...
