Comment on Latest success Jellyfin rocks!
entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org 1 week agotmpfs is overkill. I just use a crappy old 128G SSD and it’s still way faster than needed for all of my transcodes combined.
Anyway just my 2 cents.

Frequent write/deletes of so much data would be rough on my hdds, and I’ve got a couple hundred gigs of RAM, why not tmpfs it?

I’ve been using the same 10+ year old 128G SSD for transcoding, cache, and metadata storage for like 6 years now across multiple tiny servers with limited RAM. My current one has 16G of RAM, which is more than enough for JF, but not enough to store a whole movie transcode, let alone multiple at once. Bad small old SSDs are a lot cheaper and easier to come by than RAM these days, that’s all I’m saying. No hate of course, your setup makes sense for what you have, I’m just saying my way is cheaper and more than fast enough for people just building their servers now.

For sure, my memory all together was like $30 when I bought it, the pleasure of old server hardware I suppose
