Hi have a question regarding
pantsd
. I am using a docker container in CI do run pants goals, and the container is refreshed for every CI execution (on the same host instance). Since
pantsd
maintains a local in-mem cache, is it better to keep pantsd disabled for my CI setup? Would disabling it have any impact within the scope of single execution?

We have a section in the docs specifically covering CI execution: https://www.pantsbuild.org/2.20/docs/using-pants/using-pants-in-ci Personally, I've generally turned it off assuming I only have a single
pants
call in my CI (which is true when I chain goals), but if you're calling it multiple times - or if your CI can retain memory (like I've setup with a warm runners on my local network), then there can be a CI benefit with it on. I'd still always recommend trying both cases to see what works best 🤷
