Due to the large performance benefits, we early upgraded all of Uber's mobile engineers to the M1 Max (64gb) a few years ago which gave 2x the build perf vs previous gen intel.
Some of those folks are coming up for refreshers, so we did a new analysis vs the M3 Max (64gb) and we're seeing about 35% reduction in build times vs the previous cohort.
Screenshots from our benchmark harness which tests clean builds and several different build graph invalidations to mimic common dev flows.
Undertook a weekend project to cool down my home server.
Been using the Jonsbro N1 as a small ITX NAS and homelab, and it's been running warm!
Removed the front panel, installed a 3000rpm Noctua 14cm, and zip tied a second 14cm as CPU Exhaust.
What a difference! 15c-20c on the CPU and disks.
I wonder who's leaving faster, Twitter employees or Twitter users?
