Title: RE: [chef] Re: Re: Berks upload seems very slow

For comparison, on my system, uploading only the yum cookbook takes about 45 seconds.

time berks upload yum --force

Uploaded yum (3.4.1) to: 'https://<redacted>'

real 0m45.474s

user 0m1.845s

sys 0m0.235s

All of that is with a Chef 11 server.

Good call but my .kitchen folder is 1 meg, so I don't think that is it. All of terida-base is 1.5 megs.

Make sure you don't have any 'huge' files that are being uploaded. You may need a 'chefignore' file to ignore .kitchen/ if you're doing KitchenCI.  E.g. set 'terrida-base/chefignore' to include a line with '.kitchen'.

Hi,

I'm uploading from a MacBook with 16 gigs of ram, to a VM running chef server with 4 gigs of ram. 30mbit/s upload speed.

To do a berks upload of about 6 cookbooks takes over 3 minutes. Seems kind of slow to me, but I don't understand all of its inner workings.

Just looking for some feedback to understand this or make it better..
