i used to search the mempool now i search smart contracts http://codeslaw.app http://eips.wtf buidl @electriccapital views own, nfa

does it parallelize under the hood or is their hardware a lot faster? asking bc we have a lot of multi stage docker builds that are sequential

Typical @sds  to find hidden gems like this. Bookmarked!

They have a blog post comparing themselves to kaniko but the example is cherry-picked and they're not using similarly sized build machines. I'm pretty sure they're just running docker on bigger instances with SSDs. Maybe that has product market fit, but it's not hard and I'd prefer to self host that.

Are they doing anything novel? I read their docs and it sounds like they just have beefy machines and a cache. We've used kaniko cache to great effect for the same purpose. It wasn't trivial to set up but it was pretty easy.
