🚀 Introducing Ultra Runners — Up to 3x faster GitHub Actions jobs

GitHub Actions Benchmark

Temporal

Temporal is a microservice orchestration platform which enables developers to build scalable applications without sacrificing productivity or reliability. Temporal server executes units of application logic, Workflows, in a resilient manner that automatically handles intermittent failures, and retries failed operations.

This is a multi-architecture benchmark, it built an Intel (linux/amd64) and Arm (linux/arm64) image.

With depot build, the past 10 runs were

23.2x faster

saving a total of

4h 40m 3s

compared to docker build.

About the benchmark

For every commit to temporalio/temporal, 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.
