Btrfs with zstd compression can improve disk speeds slightly, at the expense of more CPU usage. +I'm running Caddy and cgit on my VM and they both work incredibly well with limited RAM. + ## And now time for something cursed! Before I wrote this guide, I wanted to make a VM on XVM but the VNC console was broken due to some expired TLS certificates.
