- uses: firebuild/apt-eatmydata-action@v1
...The action installs eatmydata and configures APT to wrap dpkg calls with eatmydata.
This way dpkg does not perform fsync() calls which would slow down package installation significantly.
To speed up the build as well, you may want to take a look at the Firebuild Action.
