PostPosted: Sat Mar 10, 2018 4:50 pm    Post subject: [TIP] Calculate your world compile time Reply with quote

I was struggling very hard to find an utility that calculates the total time I'd compiled all my packages, so I developed a command. Here are the explanation:

1. Get a list of all installed packages without the version at the end.
2. Redirect this to show building times in seconds.
3. Print only building times.
4. Sum all lines of building times.
5. Redirect the sum to a file.
6. Evalute the sum from the file.
7. Print the evaluated sum in HH:MM:SS format.
8. Delete the file to keep the system clean ;-)

Code:
qlist -I | xargs qlop -t | cut -f2 -d" " | awk '{s+=$1} END {print "secs="s}' > /tmp/btime && eval $(cat /tmp/btime) && printf '%dh:%dm:%ds\n' $(($secs/3600)) $(($secs%3600/60)) $(($secs%60)) && rm /tmp/btime


Mine is 15h:51m:28s right now.


EDIT: steveL did a big enhancement over my command, eliminating steps 3, 5, 6 and 8:
Code:
qlist -I | xargs qlop -t | awk '{secs += $2} END { printf("%dh:%dm:%ds\n", secs / 3600, (secs % 3600) / 60, secs % 60); }'



EDIT2: Mitigating/troubleshooting the outlier problem. People with absurd build times can use two commands to adapt the situation.

1) Calculating total sum excluding outliers defined by the user. I want everything bigger than 5400 seconds (1h30min) to be removed from calculation:
Code:
qlist -I | xargs qlop -t | awk '{ if ($2 < 5400) secs += $2} END { printf("%dh:%dm:%ds\n", secs / 3600, (secs % 3600) / 60, secs % 60); }'

2) Discovering the problematic build times (maybe report a bug?). I want to point out which packages build times are bigger than 5400 seconds (1h30min):
Code:
qlist -I | xargs qlop -t | awk '{ if ($2 > 5400) printf("%s  %dd:%dh:%dm:%ds\n", $1, $2 / 86400, ($2 % 86400) / 3600, ($2 % 3600) / 60, $2 % 60); }'

OK, that is fun

my desktop i7-6700: 16h:36m:10s


my thinkpad x1 carbon (4th gen / i7-6600U): 21h:42m:15s

very similar installations (but distcc probably skews result)

You can skip to write in a file
Code:
qlist -I | xargs qlop -t | cut -f2 -d" " | awk '{s+=$1} END {print "secs="s}' | eval && printf '%dh:%dm:%ds\n' $(($secs/3600)) $(($secs%3600/60)) $(($secs%60))

Luke.. use the awk, Luke ;)
Code:
qlist -I | xargs qlop -t | awk '{secs += $2} END { printf("%dh:%dm:%ds\n", secs / 3600, (secs % 3600) / 60, secs % 60); }'
(untested, as not in gentoo atm.)

Is this one of those cases where "I copied a bash line from the internet and now my / is empty"?

Just kidding,
Code:

# qlist -I | xargs qlop -t | cut -f2 -d" " | awk '{s+=$1} END {print "secs="s}' > /tmp/btime && eval $(cat /tmp/btime) && printf '%dh:%dm:%ds\n' $(($secs/3600)) $(($secs%3600/60)) $(($secs%60)) && rm /tmp/btime
11h:50m:56s


Sure felt a lot longer when I did -e world a while back. i7-2700k with '-march=native -O3 -fgraphite-identity -ftree-loop-distribution -floop-nest-optimize -flto=8 -fuse-linker-plugin -pipe -fstack-protector-all -mindirect-branch=thunk'

It's a rather academic exercise, though, isn't it? It doesn't take into account one's time spent investigating between failed merges due to blockers and bugs in packages and/or ebuilds. In many cases I have had to spend hours trying to fix a problem and get a package to merge, and its build time may be a few minutes. Over time I have spent more time debugging than the actual time it took to build the packages.

Code:
clevow230ss /home/fitzcarraldo # qlist -I | xargs qlop -t | cut -f2 -d" " | awk '{s+=$1} END {print "secs="s}' > /tmp/btime && eval $(cat /tmp/btime) && printf '%dh:%dm:%ds\n' $(($secs/3600)) $(($secs%3600/60)) $(($secs%60)) && rm /tmp/btime
40h:18m:44s

Any time you see an eval in the program, that's a good question to ask. Although sometimes useful, incautious use of eval is extremely dangerous.

My output's a bit skewed by this one entry...

Probably related to this bug in qlop

Works. Returns the exact same time.

My time is 76h:19m:7s... FX-8350 shows its age.

What would be more useful is similar arithmetic in emerge --ask to estimate the time for the command in question. Then this script becomes essentially emerge -ea world.

Goverp, this script completed in 20 seconds, which is significantly faster than 4 days emerge -aev @world would take.
Also, each of us has different @world, different set of USE flags and different hardware which means we simply _cant_ compare results anyway. There is no way to get any meaningful data from it besides "how badly screwed I am when my hard drive dies". And the answer is "you better verify your backups"

szatox, I'm not sure what you think I was suggesting, but nothing that would take 4 days. My point was that emerge could do the same arithmetic, and tell you how long the command would take if you say "Yes", thereby at least telling you whether to take a coffee, go out to the cinema, or take a small vacation while portage recompiled whatever.

That would be useful... Also the estimations for each package in the listing, since by calcutaling total time the time for each packge is already known and wouldne add much overhead.

This can be done wia processing --pretend output, but wastes time.

i didn't first output my result because it is just bork, but here it is to make everyone a few more happy with their "tiny" 500-700hours to build :D
Code:

Athlon X4 (bulldozer) Not bad for a $50 cpu
Code:
 qlist -I | xargs qlop -t | awk '{secs += $2} END { printf("%dh:%dm:%ds\n", secs / 3600, (secs % 3600) / 60, secs % 60); }'

EDIT:Can't believe Kaveri is this fast.
Code:
 # qlist -I | xargs qlop -t | awk '{secs += $2} END { printf("%dh:%dm:%ds\n", secs / 3600, (secs % 3600) / 60, secs % 60); }'

I edited my first post in order to help people with huge build times.

Don't know though what to do with Tony0945's Kaveri...
