--y+KtxNjwEe4Q3Zyh Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable My build machine tracks head, as well as recent stable (since 12 was branched, stable/11 and stable/12), running a GENERIC kernel to do so. As described in <http://www.catwhisker.org/~david/FreeBSD/upgrade.html>, each of the three branches boots from its own slice on the same physical machine; the boot drive is an SSD. On weekends, it also uses poudriere to build local packages for installation on my "production" machines during their weekly updates (Sunday morning). Since the end of October, these poudriere runs have included stable/12 (as well as stable/11). After finishing the poudriere run from stable/12, I notcied that its summary output showed that the same number of packages had been built as for stable/11 -- not surprising, of course. A further check showed that the same set of packages was built in each case, so I thought I'd share this mini-comparison as a bit of a reality check: [11amd64-ports-home] [2018-12-29_11h44m22s] [committing:] Queued: 106 Built= : 106 Failed: 0 Skipped: 0 Ignored: 0 Tobuild: 0 Time: 01:06:00 [12amd64-ports-home] [2018-12-29_13h02m24s] [committing:] Queued: 106 Built= : 106 Failed: 0 Skipped: 0 Ignored: 0 Tobuild: 0 Time: 01:05:31 I don't suggest drawing many conclusions from this, except perhaps to note that in this environment, stable/11 and stable/12 seems to be roughly comparable at first glance (both in ability to build the packages and in performance). (Information on recent FreeBSD (vs. packages/ports) builds, as well as dmesg output, may be found at <http://www.catwhisker.org/~david/FreeBSD/history/>.) Peace, david --=20 David H.
