How do you deal with the downtime. I also find myself constantly resizing instances (although for data analysis where I sometimes need 80+ cores only for a few hours), and the constant restarting and reloading drives me crazy
Maybe for sqlite because it's stored in ssd, it's only 1-2 minutes to shutdown+change parameter+restart if it's scripted?
- nlh 4y agoSo far, I just deal with the annoyance. It is indeed only a <5 minute operation, but it's just a pain (shut services down, shut instance down, resize, start instance, start services). The problem is it's the exact kind of pain that I avoid, so many times I just keep the larger (8-core) instance up and just eat the cost. I should probably script this to solve this pain point, but I'd SO rather have a setup that doesn't require this sort of jiggering.
