schestowitz[TR2]                                    <blockquote>Dec 04 16:03
schestowitz[TR2]                                        <p>A common problem with running Gentoo builds is concurrency. Many packages include extensive build steps that are either fully serial, or cannot fully utilize the available CPU threads throughout. This problem becomes less pronounced when running building multiple packages in parallel, but then we are risking overscheduling for packages that do take advantage of parallel builds. </p>Dec 04 16:03
schestowitz[TR2]                                        <p> Fortunately, there are a few tools at our disposal that can improve the situation. Most recently, they were joined by two experimental system-wide jobservers: guildmaster and steve. In this post, I’d like to provide the background on them, and discuss the problems they are facing. </p>Dec 04 16:03

schestowitz[TR2]                                        <p>Most folks in tech enthusiast circles have heard of - or own - a Steam Deck and have possibly even installed SteamOS-based Linux distributions like Bazzite or Chimera. The small but growing backlash against Windows 11's strict hardware requirements and forced upgrades may have become evident in the latest Steam Hardware & Software Survey, which shows an all-time high of 3.20% for Linux. </Dec 04 16:27
