   @wamserma @mic92 @Ericson2314 @zimbatm I think a project like hydra would benefit more from a language with strong static types *cough* #Haskell *cough*
   
   The builder scripts on the other hand...

     @Ericson2314 @fgaz @zimbatm not so confident there are many volunteers that want to deal with a arcane perl code base that has a lot of responsibilities.

     @fgaz @zimbatm @mic92

     It's going, but hydra will be a huge road blocker. We discussed needing a hydra team so we can do the more substantive work needed to bring these new features to it.

     @Ericson2314 how is the computed derivations feature going? This is exactly what it should help optimize

     @mic92 it also increases the checkout size of nixpkgs by 10MB

     ```
     > find -name Cargo.lock | xargs du | awk 'BEGIN { OFS="\t" }{s += $1} END { print s }'
     9436
     ```

     Nixpkgs evaluation now needs 15% more CPU time thanks to rust ecoysystem... https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/runs/12279178729 #nixos
