| wonko | I'm back! Installing Ubuntu Studio as we speak! Was choosing ZFS potentially a bag idea is should I be good with that? | 20:45 |
|---|---|---|
| OvenWerks | wonko: I have not tried ZFS | 20:48 |
| OvenWerks | I like that it is selve reparing | 20:48 |
| OvenWerks | self repairing? | 20:49 |
| wonko | selve? :) | 20:50 |
| wonko | A quick Google gets a phoronix article where they tried it vs ext4 on 19.10 and ext4 was mostly faster. Which is very sad. | 20:51 |
| OvenWerks | SOme how I a not surprised | 20:51 |
| OvenWerks | However, with modern ssd, it is probably still able to keep up with a lot of audio channels | 20:52 |
| wonko | It's better than ext4 on sequential | 20:52 |
| wonko | But gets murdered on random | 20:53 |
| wonko | I'm pretty tempted to just reinstall with ext4 | 20:53 |
| OvenWerks | one channel is sequencial, two is no longer... 20 is as random as they come. | 20:53 |
| OvenWerks | I still have ext4 | 20:54 |
| wonko | Yeah, I'm going to do that. Now is the time to change that. :) | 20:55 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | ZFS isn't built-in to the kernel and is loaded as a module, so it's no surprise that it's slower. | 20:56 |
| wonko | Well, the installed crashed anyway, so that's a sign. 😁 | 20:56 |
| OvenWerks | Could do XFS for everything besides media storage I suppose | 20:56 |
| wonko | That's why I really only use zfs on a real os | 20:56 |
| OvenWerks | real OS? hurd? | 20:57 |
| OvenWerks | ;) | 20:57 |
| wonko | Solaris! | 20:57 |
| wonko | So after, what, 8 months the results are in. Screw Windows. | 21:01 |
| OvenWerks | I went through that in the mid 80s I think (maybe it was msdos) | 21:24 |
| OvenWerks | then again around 2003 | 21:24 |
| wonko | It certainly made some things easier | 22:20 |
| wonko | But I think the trade offs with better for me in the other direction | 22:20 |
| wonko | s/with/work/ | 22:21 |
| OvenWerks | Back in the late 80s I ran a BBS as did a friend of mine... I ran OS2 and he ran win (3,*)... I could go away for two weeks and come home to a running system.... he had a timer that powered it off/on every day. | 22:47 |
| OvenWerks | Then in the early 2000s my wife got a windows computer.... After it started sending discusting email from people in her contacts to other people in her contacts, I switched her computer to linux.... we have never gone back | 22:49 |
| wonko | Windows has gotten a lot better since then. It's still not great though. | 23:34 |
| wonko | And it's mostly little annoyances, not anything major | 23:35 |
| wonko | But they all add up | 23:35 |
| OvenWerks | studio-controls has changed config format... again. It allows saving a database of all devices that have ever been plugged in. | 23:50 |
