I’m seeing a lot of written data to my disk when my container is running.
(It’s running Mastodon).

About 5GB / hour.

But I’m a single user instance and my containers does not receive even near that amount of data during an hour.
What is writing to disk?

Running iotop on the host it looks like z_vdev_file is writing most to disk.
That’s ZFS. Is is normal for ZFS to write much?

Is there a way to increase the timeout for my server to fetch remote media?

Not very often, but sometimes I’m missing remote media, and it seems to be because my server can’t fetch the media in time.

I for example did a tootctl media refresh for a server, and the command could not fetch the media in 5 seconds and it failed.

However, testing the same url in a browser DID fetch the media, but it took more than 5 seconds.

So what I want to do is to increase the timeout for fetching media, when the remote server is under heavy load.
