Investigate whether enable-caches needs to restart daemon on non-nixos linux #187

Open ryantrinkle opened 6 years ago

Circleci's Debian managed to use reflex's cache without restarting the daemon.

Is there a downside to restarting the daemon when it's not needed? Would it interrupt existing downloads from nix caches?

ryantrinkle commented 6 years ago

I'm not sure! But I do think it's better not to touch it unless we need to.

ryantrinkle commented 6 years ago

Is there any way we can check whether the current effective settings of the daemon include the caches?

Not entirely sure if this is the place for it, however: I already had nix installed on Ubuntu 20.04 when running ./try-reflex and was required to restart the nix daemon to have the reflex-frp caches used.
