Pants

I'm finding terrible performance in GCP VMs with pants. Even with 8 cpu, 32gig of ram on SSDs :confused:

GCP VM takes 20-30 minutes local on my giant desktop takes around 3

Any thoughts on how to debug? Time things? Is there anything similar to bazel's build event protocol?

I am trying to see if it is disk related...

Am I missing any cache locations?

```pants --local-store-dir=/mnt/disks/ssd/cache --local-execution-root-dir=/mnt/disks/ssd/sandbox --named-caches-dir=/mnt/disks/ssd/named_caches test ::```

Seems to be totally CPU bound rough timings of `pants test ::`

• 4 cpu ~20min
• 8 cpu ~10min
• 16 cpu ~5min
• 32 cpu ~4min
Local SSD for caches doesn't seem to make a difference.
