#vmware disk going berserker-mode #

Had to tear down my long-lived guest VM today. After bumping to Ubuntu 24 LTS, the disk inexplicably grew to 390gb...

  • i'd set a disk size... way smaller than 390gb
  • no snapshots...
  • no space to triage
  • corporate security that kills usb
  • having to virtualize my daily-dev env is, uh... productive

#fly.io, #phoenix & queue_interval #

Found a helpful thread for tuning how phoenix will talk to the db, in my case supabase. queue_interval: 500 is pretty long, but seems to help with the machine resume thing...
