If the slowness at the end can be avoided by configuring something, I'd like to
know, because that slowness is always the case in my experience. For example,
installing the program Joshua mentioned earlier, wf-recorder, which is quite
small, took ~7 minutes in my computer (Intel® Core™ i3-8100 CPU @ 3.60GHz × 4,
4 GiB RAM, 1 TB HDD).
Also, in my case, it is common for guix commands to take long seconds to
display any feedback when called. Actually, the current video shows guix
working at a speed I've never experienced myself.
So I wonder if the video should include these inconveniences, which people will
find once they install the software. I wouldn't like the video or anything in
the website to feel like false, mainstream advertising.
