"SPARC64 is a favorite of this developer because it's some Alice in Wonderland stuff where up is down and left is right compared to other architectures. So it exposes a number of bugs that others don't."

KindOneon Ask HN: One tab on Chrome takes about 100MB memory, why?

I had misread that, thanks.

KindOneon Ask HN: One tab on Chrome takes about 100MB memory, why?

Reminds me of this, https://medium.com/@timgasser/build-a-16-core-128gb-server-f... Looks like from supply and demand those prices increased a bit.

What CPU/mobo you using?

KindOneon The Dropbox Comp

Never heard of gocryptfs, tried it for an hour or two and its rather interesting.

I guess you could ask on the forums, https://forum.syncthing.net about your issues and see what they say.

KindOneon Failed intercept at Dhahran caused by a software error in handling of timestamps

I've seen clock drift first hand. I have an old Windows XP machine that would drift ahead about 3-30 seconds an hour while watching YouTube with Adobe flash. Playing video games, compiling gcc and other things in cygwin (hell) would not drift.

KindOneon The Dropbox Comp

I have about 750,000 files and 38,000 folders (I compile a lot of stuff). Are you putting everything in just one folder or splitting the folders up? I'm on really old hardware with mechanical drives and 100Mbps LAN so my observations are going to be different than yours.

I started out with just one folder syncing everything in '/home/kindone', that takes 30 minutes just to scan every time I started syncthing. Syncing over the LAN would not saturate my network unless it was a large file. That took about five hours to get everything synced when you have 700,000+ 4 - 400KiB c/c++ files. (It seems to send about 4 - 5 files at a time, someone correct me if I'm wrong.)

I removed '/home/kindone' and creating separate folders in syncthing for things like '/home/kindone/build/linux-4.14', /home/kindone/build/wine', and '/home/kindone/Dropbox'. Created about 65 different folder for various things, added them to my other machine on the LAN (that was annoying). Once they started syncing my 100Mbps LAN was saturated. Starting syncthing now takes 5 minutes to scan everything.

KindOneon The Long, Slow Decline of BitTorrent (2017)

I've used transmission before, its a bit basic vs bittorrent/utorrent.

KindOneon The Long, Slow Decline of BitTorrent (2017)

I'm not really a fan of torrents anymore, got a two DMCA's a few years back.

Now I just xdcc stuff from various IRC networks or I just search via Google with "index of movie_name_here 720p mkv".
