    sccache caches at the per-rustc invocation level, whereas we cache at the package level. In practice, this means we get more cache hits and our cache hits take less overhead to loa…

    Yup, this was similar to our experience as well. If publishing is still a source of toil for you, feel free to reach out at eliza@attunehq.com - we'd love to see if we can do any d…

    I'm not familiar with mise and ubi, but these look like they're tools that the end user runs to install binaries. In contrast, we're building something that sets up a server so tha…

    That's true! The Debian and Ubuntu folks are also experts at this. In our experience, the sharp edges generally affect teams that don't have a lot of in-house expertise in this, an…

    One of the tools we tried was Aptly! A couple issues we had with Aptly: 1. Aptly needs to rebuild the entire repository before it can do any changes. One of our customers builds pa…
