This is with glibc? I made a normal 'fedpkg srpm' with my x86_64 laptop and then one with --arch noarch: rpmdiff glibc-2.40.9000-14.fc42.src.rpm-x86_64 glibc-2.40.9000-14.fc42.src.rpm-noarch removed REQUIRES valgrind removed PROVIDES sysroot-x86_64-fc42-glibc = 2.40.9000-14.fc42 removed PROVIDES glibc32 = 2.40.9000-14.fc42 added PROVIDES sysroot-noarch-fc42-glibc = 2.40.9000-14.fc42 But yeah.... > >> > Also, longer term for ppc64le I have put in for budget next year to add > >> > memory/faster disks and there is also possibly power10 on the horizon, > >> > which I hope will be faster/biggger. > >> > >> Historically, Red Hat's POWER systems used desktop-class disks and had > >> very poor I/O as a result.

Not currently. The power builders have 7200rpm spinning disks. I have asked to replace them with ssds. ;) kevin
