Personally, I’m looking forward to native Wayland support for Wine and KDE’s port to Qt 6.

    Not really heavy lifting, I’m just running the Xanmod kernel, and need to turn on some features I need for eBPF development. I’m also keeping up to date with kernel releases, so every 6 weeks or so I need to rebuild.

    The ARC runs in RAM, but is generally best when it’s given:

    1. A consistent amount of memory.
    2. An easily predictable workload.
    3. Long periods of time between restarts.

    Conditions great for a server but not so much for a workstation. I don’t intend for my cache misses to go to spinning rust, so I have 2 2TB NVME drives. SSDs are cheap as chips currently.

    The L2ARC is a victim cache of the ARC, and while it is persistent it’s still much more effective for me to just use a NVME drive for my pool.

      Just went through Xanmod’s page: the list of features provided seem exciting, although I don’t really know much about some of them. Do you need these features for eBPF development?

      Well, you’re right: ARC is best used in a server. What problems did you have with BTRFS that prompted you to switch?

        I use Xanmod for gaming (fsync & related tweaks), but need other flags for development on the same machine.

        My issues with BTRFS were mainly in their userspace tooling; ZFS volume management is just glorious, it felt like a significant downgrade to use BTRFS.
