I have always had this itch to work on some real life serious system programming projects, with the most recent wave OS kernels. I completed the MIT xv6 labs (a very small repo) and did a few Linux device driver labs (very large repo and it was the first time I experienced compilation time > 5 minutes).

I got burnt out after a while, so that kinda wrapped up my experience working on large repos.

thats just a large project tho? not necessarily a mono repo.

A mono repo doesn't necessarily mean large compile times, because it depends on the projects and their dependencies within that repo.
