Testers required for OpenViX Python 3 images

[ronand]

You can build the 5.4 image with 4GB ram and a large swap file if you limit the number of threads to 2. The py3 build is a different beast. I just about get away with 24GB RAM with my old i7-920. Takes about 12 hours from scratch IIRC. If you are running low on RAM its best to limit the number of threads.

Why does it need so much more RAM?

Surely the Python 3 langauge isn't significantly more complex than Python 2.

Has something else been changed as well?

[BrokenUnusableAccount]

I've updated to 5.5.014.007.

I just noticed. Name of channel is missing on version 007.

Is that the same for everyone or have I messed up something myself?

As far as I remember on the i7-4790K, it takes over 24 hours for a complete build for just one target.

Sounds like you are running out of RAM. Needs 32GB RAM.

I have 8GB RAM and 64GB of swap and it is often over 20GB of swap in use which makes it painfully slow.

For compiling things like "jsnode" and "qtwebkit" and "stalker/kodi", etc.

Is all that new for the Py3 versions then?

I thought, but I could be wrong, that I had disabled all swap files.

I've got no clue. I haven't looked at it. I just know what is using the RAM.

I've got the same problem on any skin I pick.

I have 16GB of RAM and it's never run out of it. That's running with 8 processors.

A complete build from scratch for one box takes ~4hours on my i5-10210U laptop. On my (somewhat older) i5-2500K desktop (4 processors, also 16GB) it takes ~6 hours.

This is running Linux directly on the hardware. If you're using Ubuntu on Windows it will take much longer as the file-system access times on Windows are awful.

It never used to be that much of an issue, but on OE-A 5.0 if you end up running the QT compiles and nodejs at the same time (which happens quite a bit at the moment) they will run upto just under 32 GB of memory plus swap … and if not enough the build will crash

Probably:

if b"%" not in url[:10]: # url not encoded

Can this be added to GitHub please? I keep doing updates to latest image then forget to add it till I get a crash lol

I would create a pr request but I'm not sure if it works on py2 or if a py version check needs adding.

Just noticed the same here

I thought I'd see if 006 was ok, good job I did, kind of.

can you copy the attachment to /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Tools
.. and post result!

.... yes, back working ok again, cheers.

And the channel name is not missing in 006.
