 andi- | I could get dedicated CPU cores if I felt like it. I've about 10 VMs with them and monitor all of them but never had anything close to this. I also have a bunch of almost always idle VMs where the CPU load never really changes more than +-5% or so when things on the host are "crazy" | 22:10:07 |
 nixinator | i see. | 22:10:38 |
| andi- | It isn't swapping at all. Even though this server is in all of the NixOS rooms with a few users it is humming around 300MiB memory consumption | 22:11:25 |
| nixinator | synapse is python...so has all the ups and down python has to offer. | 22:21:30 |
| nixinator | does python have a stop the world GC? | 22:21:48 |
| andi- | yes it does | 22:23:01 |
| andi- | it also has generational GC | 22:23:08 |
| andi- | and it can take hours for objects to be reclaimed | 22:23:15 |
| andi- | I am running it with jemalloc to at least mitigate the fragmentation issue | 22:23:27 |
| nixinator | like lost and found at my local police station? | 22:23:32 |
| andi- | Maybe? | 22:23:44 |
| andi- | If objects are alive long enough it only checks them every once in a while. | 22:24:01 |
| andi- | If an object is new it checks on them often | 22:24:08 |
| nixinator | sure...i guess the factor in the memory is cheap. | 22:24:15 |
| nixinator | mines got 64gb.... | 22:24:23 |
| nixinator | the new one has 128gb i think. | 22:24:30 |
| andi- | Yeah, I've been running 128GB on my desktop for a few years now. Wouldn't go back :) | 22:24:52 |
| andi- | 64GB was nice but sometimes simply not enough. | 22:25:01 |
| nixinator | maybe put that in the post and send it herzner...tell them to plug in under a desk somewhere. | 22:25:23 |
| andi- | haha, no need. COnnection is good enough here. | 22:26:14 |
| andi- | * haha, no need. Connection is good enough here. | 22:26:17 |
| nixinator | super! | 22:26:41 |
| nixinator | sounds like you need to migrate.... :-) | 22:26:49 |
| nixinator | thanks for fixing things... | 22:26:58 |
| nixinator | sending you netadmin love. | 22:27:07 |
| andi- | It is happening again right now but so far it hasn't died because of it. | 22:27:12 |
| andi- | If things continue until tomorrow Ill open a ticket | 22:27:24 |
| nixinator | sure... i see you commented on the nodejs ecosystem. | 22:28:40 |

| andi- | Apparently there was an issue. Someone send me a mail an hour ago that it was fixed. Yet I have not received anything in response to my ticket .. | 05:48:35 |
| andi- | https://status.hetzner.com/de/incident/71c51b70-a9bd-4f9e-b66a-884550ea20ae Funny that they created the event with a later start date and an earlier end date than the actual problem but they confirmed to me that it was this case. | 12:45:54 |
