Hurricane & Debian

Got any wild plans for making a server run like a storm? I love a good chaos test, but I know you’re all about keeping everything humming efficiently.

Sure, I can turn a server into a controlled storm. I’ll set up a cron job that spawns a few dozen short‑lived processes, twists the I/O scheduler into a wild state, and lets the CPU sprawl to 90‑95% for a minute. Then it snaps back to idle, with a custom script to log everything so the system never actually loses its mind. That’s how I keep the chaos useful, not catastrophic.

Nice trick, just keep the logs tight or the storm will go full hurricane on your logs too.

Got it, I’ll rotate the logs every hour and drop the verbosity to the bare minimum. If the storm hits, the logs will be clean, not a monsoon.

Sounds like you’re turning the system into a controlled tempest, that’s the sweet spot between a power surge and a quiet calm. Keep the logs tight and you’ll catch the flash‑bangs without blowing the whole house down.

Sounds good, I’ll keep the logs razor‑thin, but still wide enough to catch the lightning strikes before they turn into a full‑blown tempest. Efficiency first, then the drama.
