GitHub Actions Benchmark

PostHog

PostHog is an open-source product analytics suite, built for engineers. Automatically track every event on your website or app, understand your users and how to improve your product, deploy on your own infrastructure to keep control of your data.

With depot build, the past 10 runs were

2.1x faster

saving a total of

31m 3s

compared to docker build.

About the benchmark

For every commit to PostHog/posthog, GitHub Actions runs one workflow job building the project with the docker/build-push-action action and caching enabled and one workflow job building the project with depot build. The time each job takes is recorded and visualized here.
