@abcdw Nice, would be neat to have a distro with atomic upgrades.

Due to the massive size and perf hit, I've been putting installing Guix on my PinePhone off until it gets like 10x faster. :sadlinux:

@abcdw Sadly
it requires huge world rebuilds which my hardware is inadequate for.

@csepp I don't think that environment for guix development requires powerful hardware. Recompilation of guix itself could be done incrementally, most optimizations could be done without even touch most of the guix modules, so you can develop and improve it with very limited hw resources.

@abcdw Compiling Guix from a checkout on my netbook takes so long that I've never let it finish so far.
I could experiment with some of these ideas on my laptop or desktop, there it's more of a storage issue that I run into.
