I was trying to rebuild my system using skylake optimization. I already tried to add
nix.settings.system-features = [
"nixos-test"
"benchmark"
"big-parallel"
"kvm"
"gccarch-skylake"
];
nixpkgs.hostPlatform = {
gcc.arch = "skylake";
gcc.tune = "skylake";
system = "x86_64-linux";
};
However it gave me an error about failing to build and test on some stuff
warning: Git tree '/home/cak/cak-nixos-conf' is dirty

Is there any stuff that i can do about this?
What happens when you try building the derivation which failed? It says it timed out and it looks like it’s 7.61 seconds too slow?

I dont really know how to build specific derivation as you asked.
nix build '/nix/store/ygxihzavfa629a58ighxh46xjq8sqxwd-openexr-2.5.10.drv^*'

Side note: the system-features are redundant, you can remove them, because the default already has those.
nix.settings.system-features
The set of features supported by the machine. Derivations can express dependencies on system features through the ‘requiredSystemFeatures’ attribute.
Type: list of string
Default: [ "nixos-test" "benchmark" "big-parallel" "kvm" "gccarch-<arch>" ]
Declared by:
<nixpkgs/nixos/modules/config/nix.nix>
and arch = "foo" implies tune = "foo", so you could probably remove gcc.tune too.

Using this first then try to do nixos rebuild removes the error but i am not sure if the rebuild itself finished. I left my laptop for several hours now and the terminal is gone but several apps opened?
Weird. I will give another rebuild and see how it goes.

I already tried to do
nix build '/nix/store/as8n92impxdakzixhbp9pak892qz4p83-re2-2024-07-02.drv'
and
nix build '/nix/store/c6b5a7x5aybc3l6crgcfywh12fhgg6k3-python3.12-hypothesis-6.112.2.drv'
Seems ended up in endless loop which both will show up on different times. Is there anyway to offload this from my laptop and maybe build it from my desktop (with emulated skylake CPU or perhaps just x86-64-v3)?
