> My experience with GHA default caches is that it’s absolutely dog slow. GHA is definitely far from the best, but it works:, e.g 1.4 seconds to restore 27 dependencies https://github.com/redis-rb/redis-client/actions/runs/205191... > The only way docker caching works is if you have a persistent host. You can pull the cache when the build host spawns, but yes, if you want to build efficiently, you can't use ephemeral builders. But overall that discussion isn't very interesting because Buildkite is more a kit to build a CI than a CI, so it's on you to figure out caching. So I'll just reiterate my main point: a CI system must provide a workable caching mechanism if it want to be both snappy and reliable. I've worked for over a decade on one of the biggest Rails application in existence, and restoring the 800ish gems from cache was a matter

> Enterprise customers can't use software under AGPL because it risks infecting their IP This is factually untrue. If you want to link an AGPL blob into your app and ship it to customers, sure. In the vastly more common case where you're using a permissive client library[0] to connect to an AGPL server, there's no risk whatsoever. At most, you might need to make your local changes to that server available to clients if they connect to it directly, as opposed to hosting a cloud SaaS setup where everything is internal to you. However, that's not the worst thing in the world. "Oh no, we improved a Free server our company depends on, and we have to share those improvements so that the person who gave us the server for free can also benefit from them" is pretty hard for me to sympathize with. This is vastly more business-friendly than the non-
