I was really surprised by the s390x performance, but I also don't really understand why there are build time listed by architecture, not the actual processors.

- pantalaimon 6mo agoi686 builds even faster
- kpil 6mo agoWhat's fast on Z platforms is typically IO rather than raw CPU - the platform can push a lot of parallell data. This is typically the bottleneck when compiling. The cores are in my experience moderately fast at most. Note that there are a lot of licencing options and I think some are speed-capped - but I don't think that applies to IFL - a standard CPU licence-restricted to only run linux.
- burntoutgray 6mo agoI thought I read somewhere that Z CPUs run at 5GHz ??
- rbanffy 6mo agoProbably because that's just the infrastructure they have.
