Mold linker

Has anyone played around with the mold linker? Curious what the build time difference might be on a large multi-core machine. Joel |

Yes, lightly. I found it similar to lld in many cases, only used it on native links for chromium it seems to be better at parallelization.

I have a branch in poky-contrib:ross/mold. It’s been blindly updated to the latest release but not tested, but the wins were not as impressive as one would hope for most builds. Worth keeping an eye on though, and if you’re interested then my branch would be a good starting point, at least for showing where work to oe-core needs to be done to generalise the linker choice further.

Oh cool! I'll run some tests on a few builds. Thanks for pointing that out. On Thu, Feb 16, 2023 at 12:42 PM Ross Burton <Ross.Burton@...> wrote: On 15 Feb 2023, at 05:35, Joel Winarske via lists.yoctoproject.org <joel.winarske=gmail.com@...> wrote: |
