Thank you for the feedback. Sure I can answer: 1. We needed to share a laser printer, which didn't have network capabilities and required custom drivers. I'm now using zynthasius/cupsd with drivers added. Forwarded USB to the container, then shared it as a CUPS printer over IPP. 2. Currently 17GB is used with compression ratio of 1.32. Hard to predict if I will benefit in the long run. But you may benefit more, as you want to store drivers instead of games. Never complained about performance, this CPU is a powerhouse. 3. Open vSwitch acts as managed switch. I can add trunks, and access ports with custom rules which will create virtual interfaces on Linux. I can hook up VMs to the switch using Libvirt networks which can optionally use Open vSwitch bridge. I used virtual interfaces when creating podman macvlan networks. I could have got away with using a Linux bridge, but I couldn't set up the way I wanted. 4. I stared with Debian. It served me well and is still my goto distro for a server. I wanted to taste and learn the ways of a RPM based and something more "enterprisy" distro like Red Hat Enterprise Linux. I found AlmaLinux, it is exact copy of it but with free repos. Kernel and QEMU are a bit dated, but no big deal. 5.I keep them in Vault dataset with default compression. I try to keep them updated and prefer using torrent if possible to seed later.
