Subject: updating takes so much memory
Date: Tue, 1 Jun 2021 09:00:47 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAB3e=nfVJj7ZszCzCg634qRYTR7KkhLBccOHPrG4dAdtvtwuxQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Can I move the Store to another disk?
I have two installations of Guix.
- One Guix SD, it works fine. I'm fiddling with it, but it's a work in
progress.
- One Guix package manager on top of my main debian 10 system. I have some
packages installed, but texlive is giant. When I do:
$ guix package -u
it uses so much memory that always exhaust my PC.
I wonder if I can symlink the store, and relocate it in another disk. I
have more than one.
Is there any best practices recommendation about doing this? Can I break
something?
Is there any issue I have to consider about performance or anything like
that?
Thanks! Guix is marvelous, but it takes a steep learning curve.
