  • Lol it sure has given me a scare multiple times. My wife got bored during quarantine and started doing pranks to keep me on my toes -- water in a cup on top of the semi-closed door that splashed down on me, googly eyes on all my computer stuff (monitors, laptops, etc.), prints of this nightmare-esque Steve Buscemi…
  • Aye! Definitely understand the frustration there. A couple of days ago, I reduced the number of retries from 10 to 5 to speed things up. If a retry didn't succeed in the first 5 tries, then it was highly unlikely to succeed in the next 5... or at least that was my thought process. The way it's currently set up, it'll kill…
  • No worries, Ant! Focus on your health first, that's what's most important. Fingers crossed it's not COVID and is something more minor that passes quickly. Heard, and I definitely see the potential of some clash, though I think the likelihood of that between myself and mikho would be minimal. I am certainly in favor of a…
  • Thank you so much everyone for the kind words and all the support! <3 Hope you get well soon, Ant! Absolutely, you read my mind. Acceptance speech incoming momentarily! :)
  • Please correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the above indicate that the 17% CPU utilization difference is in favor of bare metal over LXC (the lower the CPU utilization, the better)? Basically the task uses 71.77% of the CPU on bare metal, but the same task uses 88.93% of the CPU when run in a container -- meaning the 17%…
  • Shot in a ticket to have Clouvider check out their iperf servers. Considering reducing the number of retries so when iperf servers aren't operational the script doesn't take forever to run
  • KeePass via KeeWeb plugin on my Nextcloud instance
  • You've got a link for everything, my friend. I am impressified
  • Dallas is nice and is still operational while the rest of the state is suffering power outages from TX's recent ice/snow storm :) The 3950X is currently treating me well for my specialized use case -- a similar workload that was maxing out three cores on Hetzner cloud (EPYC CPU) is easily handled by this 2 CPU VM (at ~50%…
  • Going to nominate @mikho as well. He's supported (pre-green forum) LES from the beginning, has been a part of the low end community for forever, and is a competent admin.
  • Wowee, thanks for all the nominations, support, and kind words guys! I sincerely appreciate it. Been eyeing this thread for awhile while trying to collect my thoughts on the subject so my motivations, desires, and thoughts on the matter are 100% clear to everyone. Not intending to write a book here, but I tend to be long…
  • Here's my amateur attempt to answer some of your questions -- Based on your numbers posted, the inverse of that is true, as expected. Your first run on the host has the best single core score overall. Unless you're referring to the raw CPU frequency, in which case see my next answer below. I wouldn't pay too much attention…
  • Congrats to all parties involved! Seems mutually beneficial all around
