Today we announce that we have completely removed all traces of disks being used by our VPN infrastructure!

minus-squareKangie@lemmy.srcfiles.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoIt will make no difference to the performance of a VPN; nothing that those nodes are doing is IO bound.
minus-squareKissaki@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16·1 year agoIt’s unlikely to have any noticeable impact. This is more about verifiably and categorically not having any traces of logging or cached state. Both caching and logging should be independent of the direct usage performance anyway. And service startup happens only once - not during its usage.
