Jun 24 19:38:08 <Harvy> hi
Jun 24 19:38:46 <Harvy> has anybody tried using a flash disk for swap
Jun 24 19:40:00 <Harvy> just as cheep way to try to speed up builds by moving swap off the system drive.
Jun 24 21:54:53 <mwester> Harvy: usb devices are usually slower than disks, and they wear out very quickly -- generally they are a very poor solution for swapping.
Jun 24 21:55:04 <mwester> s/usb/usb flash/
Jun 24 21:55:05 <apt> mwester meant: Harvy: usb flash devices are usually slower than disks, and they wear out very quickly -- generally they are a very poor solution for swapping.
Jun 25 00:25:10 <Harvy> life on this channel..
Jun 25 00:26:09 <Harvy> just thinking of a cheep (i an get 128 vcheep at work)
Jun 25 00:26:38 <Harvy> just that atm my slugs have the one disk
Jun 25 00:27:25 <Harvy> and the seek time might be slowing down compile time
Jun 25 00:27:46 <Harvy> i am trying to get a native env
Jun 25 00:30:04 <Harvy> any other ideas just that at work they (128 flash drives (usb2)) are almost disposable
Jun 25 00:41:34 * Harvy is away: sleaping but will check tomorrow
