The key distinction I'm drawing is that there's a component that deals with the store of the machine being built, and another component for the store building it. The inner part of it assumes nothing from the builder (doesn't need chroot or root powers) so it can run comfortably inside a Nix build, as well as nixos-rebuild. I have some upcoming work that will use that to significantly speed up and streamline image builds for NixOS, especially on virtualized hosts like EC2, but it's also a reasonable speedup on native hosts. |
