I'm not running it, though, but Linux 6.9.6 is released.

Prepping this laptop for a trip to "Dagoba". Did a fresh install,
then bootstrapped my pan build by getting gmime from git, building and
installing that, then getting pan built from git sources.

Somewhere in there, I installed cmake from sources, because the cmake that
comes with Mint 21.3 is too old to build pan.

Now on the main system:

$ uname -a
Linux lm 6.9.6 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sun Jun 23 21:59:12 PDT 2024 x86_64
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

time -p make -j16
[...]
real 799.07
user 10778.52
sys 2249.78

That was the "kitchen sink" build in /dev/shm. Wanted to see
the time with a lower job count.

In /dev/shm again:

time -p make -j64
[...]
real 379.36
user 18100.90
sys 3703.33

I've also discovered it's faster to unpack sources in /dev/shm, configure,
make, then rsync that to the NAS and install from there.

You shouldn't be using /dev/shm. That's strictly
for POSIX shared memory.

Just mount a ramdisk wherever you want:

mount -t tmpfs -o size=XG,mode=0777 tmpfs /ram/disk/location
