Better in terms of build time, which is the right metric for a dedicated build machine. But bear in mind that a developer is usually trying to use the machine at the same time as doing a build. Adding more context switching load to the system without significantly improving build times is not necessarily a win for the developer. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
