How much local CPU/memory does a Chrome build need if you use Google's distributed build farm? I assume linking and some other stuff still happens locally, which is kinda expensive? A Chromebook with a Linux shell does seem pretty compelling if you can remote the heavy lifting.

That's the thing: local load is primarily about link and the relatively few resources that need local processing. The goma proxy process is hot, but that's only 1 core, and even with -j300, it's pretty copasetic. The crash is, I think, MacOS VM subsystem getting tuckered out.

Just take stuff out of Chromium until the macbook behaves.

Component build even fails?
-
Builds work fine (component/jumbo), it's just that when the device goes to sleep overnight, at some point it crashes. Some combination of external 4k display, Too Many Tabs (TM), and an unhappy VM subsystem makes a sometimes flaky situation _always_ flaky/crashy re: sleep.

Could you not use your powers of persuasion to make this happen

My powers of persuasion barely extend to ordering coffee, Jonathan.

What about one of them remote server things. I hear folks are really excited about leasing other people's computers these days. I think they call it "running on the crowd"

Doesn't that get...crowded? I'll show myself out.
