curious. im running all regular gui software and i usually only go over 8gb when im pushing it harder. the only time i do consistently is while gaming and even then im always below 16gb.
what distro are you running? do you have KSM enabled?
what do you use it for to be filling 8gb on linux?
its great on linux (regular distro, not particularly lightweight) and reasonable on windows 10 for me.
unless you are pushing too many tabs and/or many heavy programs
im forced to use it at work and holy shit. 11 is so heavy for no reason, 8gb of ram is not remotely enough anymore, even if you yank out some of the garbage. theres no apparent change in functionality to justify it.
the ssd smart says its almost at its end, and i suspect its because its constantly swapping. paging file is always full, unless i set it to something big like 8+ gb
what are the practical advantages/disadvantages of this over vaapi?
i tought this was gonna be boring, barely beneficial, wsl enablement but they are working on memory allocation. why?
it even demands rent for using your computer in the form of licensing, and possibly recurring payments in the future.
did they update gamescope to work with xorg?
having another one of these in a cluster is not off the table, but for now size is a priority. its all backed up with another router to take over if needed.
so, socialism?
you do if you want more than just a router
not the same class of device though
topton is one of the more “trusted” brands in there. you can get anything from a small dual core celeron to a mobile i7, with two ddr5 slots, m.2 slots, mpcie slots, sata slots… you name it.
it can be quite a punch on a tiny box and it is a very practical all-in-one device, but it does need some tinkering repasting and adjusting out of the box. mine in particular has issues around wol and absolutely needed cooling fans and better thermal paste. ymmv.
here is a popular one.
here is some discussion about these boxes with varying levels of success in using it, its quite good once the kinks are worked out.
this form factor is definetly something if you want a homelab without the hassle, pricetag, size, noise, energy consumption… you can virtualize everything in it if you get one big enough.
i dislike the relative lack of repairability and expandability too.
processing power is more than adequate, and it comes in a tiny practical box, this is my priority atm.
so it can also be my wifi ap, im using virtualized openwrt to make it happen.
the ap i was using is now doing its duty as an extender while the beefier one does firewall, wifi, server, storage you name it…
just got it from aliexpress. though any hardware or mini pc will do, really.
if you want something like this but branded, look into protectli, they make similar devices.
no need to be a programmer to do it!
what are you replacing grafana with?
noice
at least output dmesg or get htop on the screen or something. you could find it on the internet if you look up commands to look like a hacker and thats not even 30 seconds of effort. i wonder how many other professions cringe at the shitty tv shows about their craft.
