I figured I should just post this in case others encounter this, because it seems like something that may be quite complicated to actually pin down.
I have a Windows on ARM system (Surface Pro 11), and so need to run Julia in WSL to use the version compiled for ARM. So I have VSCode set up to run connected to WSL, and to use Julia inside WSL.
When I tried to precompile a package, which includes dependencies on Enzyme and Flux among others, from scratch inside VSCode’s REPL, the entire system hangs (display and all) somewhere variable while Enzyme is being precompiled. Eventually the system throws up a DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION blue screen.
However, if I repeatedly precompile, it eventually gets through everything.
I also don’t seem to see the issue if I precompile from scratch just within a WSL Terminal window.
