I have an AArch64 desktop, so I tried to build the stack using
mock-chain, prusaslicer failed to build as the oom killer kicked in,
my desktop has 64GiB ram and 64 cores. I am trying again, limiting the
number of CPUs as we do for power, I suspect we may need to limit the
number of CPUs globally, or possibly do something like Ceph does where
it sets the number of CPUs based on the ram and CPUs of the build host
I know I'm late (been down with the pox for a month), but I just wanted
to note that you can use the %constrain_build macro to do something like
that.
%constrain_build -c 12
%constrain_build -m 2048
The first clamps the CPU count to 12. The second clamps the CPU count
to the total RAM size of the system in MB divided by 2048, rounded
down. This works in F36+.
