[02:16] schestowitz-TR2 I think I observed all cpu core gooing max just 2 mins prior to it

[02:17] schestowitz-TR2 so that might explain that?

[08:03] Techrights-sec I think so, the other day I saw lots of heavy processes and one at around 99%,

[08:03] Techrights-sec so I killed the 99% one and the others went away too.

[08:27] schestowitz-TR2 i went to sleep around 4:30, woke up a few times and dealt with apache, better to

[08:27] schestowitz-TR2 automate the restart as you suggested in the command line with curl

[08:27] Techrights-sec yes for those hours it would be ok I think, as a kludge

[09:58] schestowitz-TR2 ota in a bit

[09:58] schestowitz-TR2 thanks foir the patience and effort on apache

[09:58] schestowitz-TR2 i think it shuts down due to load

[10:22] schestowitz-TR2 done, it's about TAXZ joining geminispace

[10:23] schestowitz-TR2 TAZ

[10:23] Techrights-sec TAZ?

[10:24] Techrights-sec Great!

[10:25] schestowitz-TR2 go to their capsule, taz.de

[10:27] Techrights-sec Great!

[10:27] Techrights-sec It works.

[11:25] schestowitz-TR2 added ooxml url

[11:30] Techrights-sec thanks

[11:33] schestowitz-TR2 topic suggestions needed

[11:33] schestowitz-TR2 I'm running low ;-)

[11:41] Techrights-sec The necessity of open formats is always relevant, IMO. Same for open protocols.

[11:41] Techrights-sec Notice that none of the web-based tools like Zoom and the others can

[11:42] Techrights-sec interact with each other, due to proprietary protocols.

[11:42] Techrights-sec With the "cloud"-based storage, the multinationals appear to aim to eliminate

[11:42] Techrights-sec even the question of file formats as they will hold control over all

[11:42] Techrights-sec aspects of access.

[11:45] Techrights-sec thanks

[11:45] schestowitz-TR2 you started typing something, but little enough that you can still recall what it was about

[11:46] schestowitz-TR2 my PC is becoming painfully slow at times when I encode/transcode videos, depending on the video and I'm not sure why. I think total resolution plays a big role. at 1080p the machine is rendered almost dead, I have to kill ffmpeg

[11:47] Techrights-sec iirc it was about control of access to data, skipping the fight over file

[11:47] Techrights-sec formats. Anything in the "cloud" is behind a proprietary gatekeeper.

[11:49] Techrights-sec Would nicing the process from the beginning help? ionice or nice

[11:50] schestowitz-TR2 maybe one day I will pass the pipeline to another, slower machine that is less ac

[19:28] schestowitz-TR2 good

[19:28] schestowitz-TR2 evening

[19:28] schestowitz-TR2 I took a nap

[19:28] schestowitz-TR2 when I woke up the video was stil processing

[19:29] schestowitz-TR2 then the machine was slow

[19:29] schestowitz-TR2 syslog still has those PCI errors

[19:29] schestowitz-TR2 I decidedf to sniff around a bit

[19:29] schestowitz-TR2 xorg was acting a little weiurd

[19:29] schestowitz-TR2 after givig a kick or two to plasma and other bits

[19:29] schestowitz-TR2 I think I now know why processing was so slow

[19:29] schestowitz-TR2 or rather, how to get around it when that happens again

[19:30] schestowitz-TR2 earlie today IU was moaning about trnacoding taking ages

[19:30] schestowitz-TR2 but my cpu cores were just busy processing tons of cruft

[19:30] schestowitz-TR2 I thought the errors from the kernel/hardware might be to blame

[19:30] schestowitz-TR2 but having overcome this and found xord was taking up lots of resources

[19:30] schestowitz-TR2 I think a bug in the dsplay layer was likely the culprit

[19:31] Techrights-sec xorg on Devuan also takes up a lot of CPU, low double digits at the moment

[19:32] schestowitz-TR2 it was a lot worse here since the morning and this evening it was painful to even

[19:32] schestowitz-TR2 just open some web pages

[19:32] schestowitz-TR2 this is noit normal but I think it's OK now

[19:32] schestowitz-TR2 so it took me like x5 times the usual time to process the videos

[20:01] Techrights-sec agate sees to cache files indefinitely. That makes updating files difficult.

[20:01] Techrights-sec consider the curl one-liner
