For me in particular I’m a software developer who works on developer tools, so I have a lot of tests running in VMs so I can test on different operating systems. I just finished running a test suite that used up over 50 gigs of RAM for a dozen VMs.

Same, 48c/96t with 192gb ram.

make -j is fun, htop triggers epilepsy.

Few vms, but tons of Lxc containers, it’s like having 1 machine that runs 20 systems in parallel and really fast.

Have containers for dev, for browsing, for wine, the dream finally made manifest.
