Cannot confirm, do you have details? Yes, Hetzner upgrades DCs (datacenter buildings), but they are the equivalent to AWS AZs (Availability Zones). When they upgrade a DC, they notify way in advance, and if you set up your services to span

There are pros and cons of the LTS approach. A big CON is that even on Ubuntu LTS, lots of softare is incredibly out of date and full of unpatched security vulnerabilities. Consider Roundcube, probably the most popular PHP email web client.

I also use bup for a long time, but found that for very large server backups I'm hitting performance problems (both in time and memory usage). I'm currently evaluating `bupstash` (also written in Rust) as a replacment. It's f

Many packfile-deduplicating backup tools (bup, kopia, borg, restic) can mount the deduplicated storage as FUSE. It might make sense to check how they do it. I'd also be interested in how elfshaker compares to those (and `bupstash`, whi

I believe you read "just not Python", when the parent poster wrote "not just Python", meaning that a connection pooler can be used also from other languages besides Python, which don't have SQLAlchemy specifically.

When was that? I also asked Hetzner for GPU instances after they took down the ones from the website, and a price list was not available at the time, but for a sufficiently sized order they said they would provide me some.

RAM bandwidth scales with the number of DIMMs used, e.g. a current AMD EPYC machines can do 220 GB/s with 16 DIMMs per spec sheet. How well does NVMe scale to multiple devices, that is, how many GB/s can you practically get today

I would not take this benchmark to draw general conclusions. The spinning disk result is only 10x slower than RAM. But a spinning disk's throughput is 100-1000x less than current RAM, and for latency it's even worse. Similarly,
