Interesting.

Hmm sounds risky, no?

I wonder if we could instead ensure no I/O-intensive workload runs that
machine.  I’m thinking in particular of the derivations that produce
ISO/qcow images that are not offloaded but maybe should.

WDYT?  Do you think that’d be enough?  Or is tmpfs our only hope?

Thanks,
