@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... It'd been running hot for at least the last two weeks (only noticed when I was debugging database slowness!); I just zoomed in on the graph.

The big lesson for me is: there is a big difference between NVME on a desktop and NVME on a server - at least when it comes to heat & longevity.

I'd planned to throw an Optane in to buffer the Postgres->ZFS random sync writes; but it may not be necessary & I'm out of X4 slots now :(

@nprofile1q... I hear ya.

Question I've always wanted to ask? What year is/was your VW Bus?

@nprofile1q... Agreed. I got around this 95% of the time by using #homebrew (I'd previously never tried it on Linux, but it ships with #bluefin). I was fearful of the impact of a second package system, but it worked well and stayed out of the way of system conflicts by installing binaries under /home.

The other 5% was crazier things like Elastic Security that involved dumb things like monkeypatching binaries to work :(

I haven't used it for a spell, but I really liked Bluefin.
