Interesting - using WSL on Thinkpads (T460 and some Carbon from ~ 2018 till 2020, 2020-2024 on T480 and T16 G2 now) with WSL (WSL2 mostly) and cannot say it was/is resource hog or blasting the fan out of the blue. Working with balanced

I'm not arguing on venv to isolate installs, I'm saying that relying on Python coming from UNIX-like OSes is close to impossible for, at least web related projects. I.e. Ansible does a lot [in terms of what code it generates] to k

Thank you! Indeed, container live migration is limited and a bit unclear on "network devices" - bridged interface is network device or not? Bit ironic, that even with using CRUI, which AFAIK was created by the same Virtuozzo guys

I'm not sure that clustering goes beyond "multiple hosts with single API to rule them all" - thus I assume when physical node needs maintenance, it won't magically migrate / restart VEs on other cluster members. May

I'm not quite sure what's your question here? Very much similar to any other system which needs to reboot and you getting ready to these reboots in advance. To some extent, of course things like vSphere/Virtuozzo and even LXD

Just in case - I'm using LXD inside my WSL and it working great. BTRFS backed storage via loopfile, saves $$$. For others, why it may be useful in regular sysadmin job: * say doing Ansible scripting against LOCAL network is hell amount

if your question is genuine, then the simple answer would be full system inside container of LXD/Incus (I prefer to use term VE for Virtual Environment to distinguish from barebone containers of Docker style). The full system, means, a

While I totally agree here, replication/raid vs backups, I must say that having some weak (in terms of HW resources) replica somewhere in the closet is much much better than system with just single master.

I definitely met several cases where support for shrinking would be beneficial - usually something about migrations and things like that, but yet I agree it's quite rare operation. Benefits come with lower amount of downtime window and

okay, I got the idea here, thank you. Gonna save some CPU cycles on app side, but will keep DB loaded - better than nothing. Having field in table with last_updated is needed (if I translate your "sqlachemy model" terms correctly)

There is no obligation on you to use it, especially if you have better tooling for the tasks. For my team needs, I see benefits of using self-contained tool which doesn't require any extra modules to be installed and venv-like activate
