    Probably people in Korea or even nProtect themselves.

    That said, fixing a bug related to software incompatibility with Wine might also benefit other applications (since Wine may behave as “expected” as it runs on Windows). This is why they even tested Audacity to run on Wine even that a native Linux version is available.





  • Not possible AFAIK, plus it will degrade the performance due to the latency etc, IMO it’s not feasible and not the best way if you want to leverage your GPU’s horsepower.

    You will need to keep the transcoding in the storage server, maybe the rest (a viewer, manager etc) you can move to the Turing Pi 2.

    But then, if it’s for a real time decoding, it’s not possible. Rather than getting an SBC like the Pi styled computers, consider getting something like a motherboard that has built in J4125 from Biostar which has a PCI-E slot and move your GPU to that Biostar mobo to handle all your media needs. And keep the storage server GPU-less.




  • ARNiM@lemmy.worldtoSelfhosted@lemmy.worldHow much swap?

    As most have pointed, the “always 2x” rule doesn’t have that much of relevance in 2023 as most computers now has more than 4GB of RAM. I would only use that much of a swap when using a low hardware.

    For desktop, I would never go swapless, though. In the event of memory pressure, swap would still help in that situation so that OOM Killer do not kick off and unintentionally kill my working process. Plus it helps that Linux can move the least used data to the swap and use the RAM for filesystem cache.

    So my rule of thumb, for desktop: If RAM < 8GB: Swap == 2x RAM If RAM => 8GB: Swap == 1x RAM

    For servers, I think it depends on the workload. I keep a small amount, like probably 50% of RAM or less. But for stuff like Redis, it doesn’t make sense to have swap. You want to ensure that everything is in the memory.
