Not OP, but some patterns instantly stood out - * The use of `useCallback` is confusing in the demo code and is entirely unnecessary. * Inconsistent use of single/double quotes and {}'s for literal values. * Non-idiomatic

Recent versions of rsync support zstd compression, which can improve speed and reduce the load on both sides. You can check if your rsync supports that with "rsync -h | grep zstd" and instruct to use it with "-z --zc=zstd&quo

No Docker for us. I baked all dependencies (DB/Redis/etc) into the main image with the GitHub runner to maximize performance. This works well for us as a relatively small product team that tightly controls all environments. Modula

Executing a GitHub runner in a container is a no-brainer, but it's still easy to overload the _host_ with too many jobs/containers, so managing resources is always up to the operator. I understand why GitHub has this constraint -
