NixOS: automatically optimize the store
- categories
- NixOS
The following enables automatic periodic optimization of the Nix store:
{
nix.optimise.automatic = true;
}
The default behavior (as of ) is to optimize daily at 3:15. This can be configured via nix.optimise.dates, which (according to the configuration.nix man page) takes “a specification in the format described by ~systemd.time~” or a list of such.
{
nix.optimize.dates = "weekly";
}
