thanks!

debugging is real pain with Clion for k/n 🙂 no fancy stuff like intellij, does not even show the variable value

native dev is fun isn't it. wait until you see the stack traces 🙂

at least k/n has stack traces

already I saw one, it took time to make sense out of it 🙂 yeah its fun 🙂

have experience with golang, but k/n stacktrace is whole new level 🙂

Mike I submitted the PR for linux bootstrap.. Though not sure about the packaging task, in none of the systems (win, mac) it is generating any artifacts, not sure if that is completed or not

thanks! i'll take a look this evening

hmmm. i installed the latest ubuntu 17, and tried snap.

so far the experience is .... not impressive

it was worse than graviton actually. it did eventually install hello-world

their building instructions are a laugh. "install ubuntu in a container". i worked on a snap-like thing about 15 years ago called autopackage

i developed proper binary portability. none of this "just install a whole other OS and compile in that" nonsense.

[SlWorld::SlWorld()] Hello! [SlWorld::SlWorld()] [SlWorld::SlWorld()] This is a game based on SDL2 libraries. [SlWorld::SlWorld()] Porting to SNAP packages is still in beta, and debug messages have been enabled. [SlWorld::SlWorld()] Few things are not working: audio, accelerated renderer, etc. [SlWorld::SlWorld()] [SlWorld::SlWorld()] You can also get this app for you smartphone. [SlWorld::SlWorld()] If you have some issue, please let me know http://www.1bsyl.com

mmmmm .... porting to snap is still in beta?

i'm out of time for tonight unfortunately. have to get a working java onto my new ubuntu install and then try out the bootstrap tool

@mikehearn next I'll work on the linux scheduler.. hope it will be ready by this weekend

nice! i haven't even integrated usage of the scheduler yet

experimenting with parallel maven pom downloads at the moment

see if we can speed it up

@anidotnet can you try something for me?

then run

./graviton --profile-downloads=5 com.github.ricksbrown:cowsay

and let me know what the final time is

then do

git checkout master

and do it again. let me know what the improvement is

i've just added parallel dependency download. for me, this makes it 2x faster. for you, the difference may be much much larger because your connection is much higher latency than mine

also try

--no-ssl --profile-downloads=5

- disabling SSL doubles speed again, for me

i'm down to 5 seconds on a clean cache for cowsay

question is, why is ssl so slow. i know JSSE is quite slow. but it may also be that SSL is disrupting connection sharing or reuse or something

hmm a bit annoying. Maven Central's CDN supports HTTP/2 but they haven't activated it
