there is a new Clojure CLI prerelease out that you could try if you like: • TDEPS-199 Use default http-client in S3 transporter • Cache S3 transporter for a repo • Fixed session cache to work properly across threads / binding stacks for better perf • Replace specific maven version range requests with non-range request to reduce repo metadata lookups

Mainly, it should be faster to make classpaths. It may also improve some of the Maven concurrency issues as a side effect. I wasn’t working on that explicitly, but may be improved. So if you are using -Sthreads 1 on a ci server to avoid that, I’d love to hear if it helps

I guess I forgot the version 1.10.3.939

new Clojure CLI prerelease with some additional performance enhancements: 1.10.3.943 • Load and cache Maven settings once for perf • Cache version range resolution results for perf

in the original case I've been working on the total download time has gone from ~58 sec to 7 sec - this is just one use case and is pretty heavily impacted by what transitive deps you have, whether version ranges are in use, whether you're using an s3 repo, etc. and of course, if you have a cached classpath, nothing changing here is being run, so caveat emptor

Sounds like it might benefit CI setups quite a bit @alexmiller?

I think so, yes

would appreciate anyone kicking tires (and turning off -Sthreads 1 if you're using that - I believe I have probably mitigated a lot of the maven concurrency issues we were seeing so this should not be needed and will of course be faster). have not worked on the git download concurrency issues, so you may still need it for that.

if you do find a reproducible (-ish) case for maven concurrency issues, would love to have a deps.edn that demonstrates that

I opened a ticket at work to vendor in the .943 prerelease. Should get to that tomorrow and run some local tests then see how it does on our CI setup.

Sorry if this has been answered (my search-fu is weak), but if I want to use t.d.a. programmatically (as a library), specifically with add-libs support, is the add-lib3 branch on GitHub still my best source? I notice it’s 5 months / 113 commits behind master, hence the question.

yeah, it hasn't been merged recently. not sure it will work with Clojure CLI as is

I just merged master into it in case that helps you

Thanks! I’ll give it a spin and see what happens.

note also that master is actually ahead of the stable release, so you're effectively getting the changes mentioned above too

just out of curiosity, what do you use it for?
