Uh-oh. needs a break. After success on the small computer, trying #FreeBSD on the big main computer didn't go well at all: it wasn't even about yotube or videos, everything was slowing down and the logs were full of GELI error E_NOMEM.

I need to pause and read the memory requirements of ZFS. Maybe 32G isn't as much as I thought. And I don't think it's the processor - Ryzen 5 with 16 threads is not the dead horse.

@yrabbit oh dear. 32G of RAM is plenty, I run ZFS on 1G systems with ease, geli should not make a significant difference there, and I agree Ryzen5 CPU should be just fine.

Can you share a bit more of your config/setup ?

@dch
let's see. I have no desire to reboot from #DragonFlyBSD now - I've been struggling with Free all day and now I'm going to watch a film:).

But I can give you hardware information if that's what you mean. If you need the result of #FreeBSD specific commands, then post which ones and I'll do it tomorrow.😉
