There’s actually a lot of complexity spent on compacting the resource and latency tables. But, yes, there are 5k+ entries per cpu, roughly 28 byte each.

<br class="">
I recently did a run where I built clang executables on FreeBSD 12-CURRENT [1], from trunk r250000 (2015-10-11) all through r327700 (2018-03-16), with increments of 100 revisions. This is mainly meant as an archive, for easily doing bisections, but there are also some interesting statistics.<br class="">
<br class="">
From r250000 through r327700:<br class="">
* the total (stripped) executable size grew by approximately 43%<br class="">
* the size of the text segment grew by approximately 41%<br class="">
* the size of the data segment grew by approximately 61%<br class="">
* the size of the bss segment grew by approximately 185%<br class="">
* real build time (on a 32 core system) grew by approximately 60%<br class="">
* user build time (on a 32 core system) grew by approximately 62%<br class="">
* maximum resident set size (RSS) grew by approximately 32%<br class="">
