Switched to @BuildJet for building arm/arm64 Dokku images in CI. Now instead of timing out after an hour or taking ~20 minutes to build, ARM/ARM64 builds complete in 2 minutes, as quickly as AMD64! github.com/dokku/dokku/pull/…

Investing in larger machines for docker builds is such a no-brainer! Got our build times @mitidotai down from ~20 mins to <5 mins by transitioning to runners provided by @BuildJet

@BuildJet is truly amazing. We went from building our Expo app 2x faster and 2x cheaper with changing only 1 line of code.

Signed up with @BuildJet this evening to bring ARM64 build runs to ImageSharp so we can finally add and test ARM intrinsics. Super impressed with the ease of integration and performance. Kudos!!

Switching from the default github macos-latest runners to buildjet, seems like a big win. Anyone else doing similar for Android Emulator builds in CI? buildjet.com/for-github-acti…

It’s pretty crazy how inefficient most CI setups are. We’re spending 99% of the time reinstalling 99% the same dependencies as last time and recompiling the same code as last time etc. How did we end up in this situation?

TIL about @BuildJet: faster *managed* runners for GitHub Actions! Don't want to spend a day setting up your own self-hosted runners on AWS and then worry about the hassle of supporting that? @BuildJet is ✨super easy✨, fast, and they take over the maintenance effort 💟

That was impressive onboarding. A couple clicks and edit one line in the workflow and now it's 3x faster. No clue what the bill will look like, that's excitement for another day. @BuildJet

I've recently stumbled upon @BuildJet and it is a night and day difference. They have this blog showing that GitHub's default runners are slower than a 2015 MacBook buildjet.com/for-github-acti…

In this performance review, we will take a close look at the cost of slow hardware. Firstly, we will compare CI runs with different codebases, on different hardware. We will then explain the differ...

I've been trying out @BuildJet for Github Actions since yesterday and the reduction in build times is very noticeable.

Just tried out @buildjet and it’s so much faster than native Github Actions runner
