In #7659 I added a stupid hack to improve Helios build-and-test times in CI: first build everything with
--exclude=omicron-nexus, then perform a normal build. This was to mitigate the effect of simultaneously linking all Nexus-containing binaries (bin and test targets for both Nexus and OMDB), which severely pushed the memory limits of Buildomat instances at the time.Since #10018 this job now uses an instance with 256 GB of memory. This is enough RAM.
This change appears to shave about four minutes off of this job. This may also have the side effect of making the build timing data useful again. #10058 had to deal with a change to rustc's build analysis output and given my read of the script the uploaded build timing file would have basically only contained information about how long it took to build Nexus. (But I could be wrong, I have not actually looked at the file.)
