Such a casual and low-key introduction of what sounds like an incredible new capability.
1 . Would something like this replace packer for creating machine images?
2. Curious how quickly the replay log grows and how it compares to a CoW snapshot.
3. Will be interesting what the log looks like and what doors could open up creating or generating it by other means.
- owyn 2y agoIt is very cool, but I think some version of this feature has been around for years? This commit is from 7 years ago, and it looks like the code originates back to 2010. https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/v2.9.0/docs/replay.txt https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/v2.9.0/docs/replay.txt That said, I was not aware of it until I saw this post, and I definitely want to play around with it.
- Intralexical 2y agoWell, I guess it was probably new when the doc page was first written to introduce it. > That said, I was not aware of it until I saw this post, and I definitely want to play around with it. You could almost say it was too casual and low-key. ;)
