What’s your hardware solution for that? I’ve reached the limit of my configuration and may need to look into more robust hardware (or moving things like jellyfin off to a dedicated machine)

I will add, what helped me the most with Plex/Jellyfin load was using Tdarr to normalize my library’s formats into something easy to direct stream to any device without transcoding.

  I’ll check out tdarr. If it’s something I can configure to run overnight it probably would be worth the effort. Thanks!

  I ran tdarr for a while, eventually I found for most things that it was faster (and better quality) to re-download in better formats than to re-encode.

    That’s fair!

It’s old but fairly beefy. Most of the RAM is reserved for ZFS reads, but in reality theres tons of headroom.

CPU: 2x E5-2630L v2 Motherboard: Intel S2600CP RAM: 8x8GB DDR3 1333 ECC Disk:

1x 500GB SSD OS

1x 500GB SSD ZFS cache (L2ARC)

45TB ZFS Mirror+Stripe pool (various sizes, 8 disks)

I’ll probably be moving this to a cluster of mini computers whenever prices look right, just for power efficiency.
