What config did you end up setting with, if you happen to have the info easily to hand? I might be able to speed up SSHing to some of the slower hardware I have here. Also, I'm very curious what SoC this was.

I puzzled over this for a minute as well. Maybe the GP is referring to the user who uploaded the video.

There are two ways you can go lower: the cpu cgroup, and cooling_deviceN. I'm still working on memorizing the first approach :) but it works well just about everywhere; the second is simpler but employs intel-specific hardware-level th

I have no delusions I'd be able to viably make a dent in the area (at least anytime soon), but I do wonder how this would actually work. The optimal solution would of course be to shard both the compute I/O and the storage footpri

Hmm. Now I'm wondering if it makes semantic sense to nest sarcasm tags. If not, they might self-close, like <p> or <li>.
