Topic: Speed up lake exe cache get on Windows
Floris van Doorn (Mar 01 2024 at 19:16):
I saw this video a while back about performance improvements in rustup on Windows:
"NTFS really isn't that bad" - Robert Collins (LCA 2020) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbKGw8MQ0i8
I wonder if any ideas from that video are useful for the performance of lake exe cache get
. There are many similarities between the lake cache and the problems in that video (copying many small files, anti-virus makes the problem worse, ...), but there seem to be quite a lot of tips to improve the situation (and that also improved the performance on NFS). I do not have the technical knowledge to know which ones do and do not apply to the lake cache.
