00:41:06 09:00:42 10 gigabytes of wired after an uptime around 60 days. i'm not running any VMs, my ARC isn't nearly that big. but i do have an amdgpu graphics card. If this was your situation, where would you look first in order to figure out what's going on? 09:05:04 vmstat? 09:06:46 thanks 09:11:23 in fact the word wire appears exactly nil times in vmstat's manpage 09:11:48 also: the observant will recognize this question as one "i"'ve asked about 5 times now 09:17:34 what does the REQ column mean 11:54:47 if you got a sas file server with 256gb ram running zfs, raid 10 on 8 drives, how much swap would you set? 11:55:06 i like matching ram but 256gb of swap seems like a lot 12:46:51 <[tj]> is there a way to customise the installer to do an auto install? 12:47:03 <[tj]> this article is close, but more interaction than I want: https://www.siberoloji.com/how-to-use-bsdinstall-for-automated-deployments-on-freebsd/ 12:47:45 <[tj]> one way would be to enable cloudinit and stick a script to be picked up by that to run bsdinstall 14:39:57 if you got a sas file server with 256gb ram running zfs, raid 10 on 8 drives, how much swap would you set? i like matching ram but 256gb of swap seems like a lot 15:06:16 kerneldove_: not much because if you were using 256gb of swap something would be terribly wrong 15:06:40 kerneldove_: and if those are HDDs, the system will lock up over the storage being too slow long before you reach 1/10th of that 15:07:21 zwr ya they're 10k rpm sas 15:07:26 600GB 15:07:31 kerneldove_: make a swap file, then it's easy to change the size, unlike a partition. Start at 4GB or so, chances are you'll never use 4GB 15:07:43 hm ok. ty 16:02:03 Advantage of a swap partition though, is it takes the filesystem code out of paging. . . which is a significant performance boost. 16:02:26 Even Windows does that, though most people don't realize it. 16:03:58 Yes, windows allocates a "swap file," but it has to be a contiguous file (not fragmented), and the OS just marks the start and stop blocks where the swap file is, and the OS writes to that secont of the disk directly, not via NTFS, FAT, or whatever. 16:55:08 CrtxReavr: Is this also true for zfs? i am asking.. as i have a 32 gig swap and it is zero right now.. 16:55:22 i also am only using 28 gig of my 64 gig.. 16:57:04 ZFS could change the equation there. 16:57:20 I'm a UFS luddite, so I'm not the best person to ask about systems with ZFS. 17:20:23 "ufs luddite" presumably means you oppose technology related to ufs 17:21:01 unless you destroy filesystems that are ufs: a member of any of the bands of English workers who destroyed machinery, especially in cotton and woolen mills 17:32:04 has anyone tried to install debian13 into bhyve (since it was released)? what are you using for a template? i get stuck at the 'grub>' after what seems like a successful install 17:44:09 heh, so it looks like the flow control setting I tried didn't solve the issue v_v 17:47:22 rtprio: this works for me https://termbin.com/qcxs 17:49:01 rtprio: (vm-bhyve) 17:49:21 yes, i'm using vm-bhyve, but the old template was grub 17:58:15 sd0: huh, when i try that, the console seems to hang 18:02:40 i get the menu for the graphical/text intstaller, but selecting install goes blank :| 18:03:41 you need to add "console=ttyS0" to the command line in grub 18:11:20 man, you don't realize how smart the freebsd console is until something else shows up that does it wrong 18:54:12 rtprio, https://www.flamewarriorsguide.com/warriorshtm/android.htm 18:58:02 That site is sadly broken in some way, with several of the images missing. 18:58:30 Gotta pull it for the wayback machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20150101021144/http://www.flamewarriorsguide.com/warriorshtm/android.htm 19:07:39 if you're calling me out for a noting "logical inconsistencies" when the phrase you use means exactly opposite of how you intended, okay 21:25:35 Has anyone been able to get ComfyUI to run on FreeBSD with GPU support natively? 22:43:31 sd0: do you have/do something that rewrites grub after install? 23:12:43 Anyone happen to have a USB base APC battery backup on 15? It works?
