I assume this is do to egress from S3. I wonder how that cost compares to re-generating the historic caches. Presumably that is possible with nix.
- 8organicbits 3y agoIt may even be worth leaving historic data in S3, assuming it gets low enough traffic, then expire it once it's too old. Definitely look for ways to avoid egressing it all from S3.

One issue that you'll run into is that many upstream source archives are not available anymore at the original URL. Though I think it should be possible to collect all fixed-output derivations and copy their outputs over to a new cache and then try to build. Once these are in the cache, Nix will not try to download the sources from the original location but use the binary cache instead.
