Would anyone be willing to share some performance numbers of an Ember build of the open source Ghost-Admin project in WSL and/or mac, in addition to how much RAM/CPU you have on each machine?
If you really want to go the extra mile and pair your numbers with some disk read/write : What are your disk read/write speeds measure as, and what your cpu speeds measure as, and consequently how fast ember server rebuilds the app.
I happen to be looking for a new machine myself, been meaning to visit a windows store and try convincing someone to let me setup ember with ghost and time the performance of it. I will try adding the windows defender exceptions mentioned above, and there's this other trick to increasing the write speed on windows (something about disabling write cache buffering, which makes it so you can potentially lose data in the lost of a sudden lose of power). Benchmarking the CPU with Geekbench and measuring the read/write speeds with one of these tools https://www.geckoandfly.com/23934/ssd-hdd-effective-read-write-speed/.
I want to find out what gives you the most bang for your buck when it comes to optimizing ember build/ember server reload speeds - RAM, CPU, or Storage space (which can increase read/write speeds since you increase the number of channels). (I want to get a Surface Book 2 so I can mess around with 2d game dev; Currently on a MacBook Air 2013, and after I'm coding for 30-60 minutes, things REALLY start slowing down..)
It would be fascinating to then also compare the performance of WSL & Mac to a hosted dev server, where you sync file changes to it, and then it builds the app and serves it on some special url. (PS any recommendations for a hosting provider for this sort of thing?)
If you are commenting, I think you'll need this for github gist comment notifications: https://giscus.co/
