    Congrats on the switch. The desktop has a nice vibe to it.

    Curiously, did you go with UFS or ZFS for your installation?

        I asked because you may want to look at adjusting the default ARC settings.

        The justification for ARC is that to a server system spare memory is wasted memory, although if you’re like me you won’t like seeing “low memory” messages when all you have open is a terminal.
