  • It depends a lot on what you want to do and a little on what you’re used to. It’s some configuration overhead so it may not be worth the extra hassle if you’re only running a few services (and they don’t have dependency conflicts). IME once you pass a certain complexity level it becomes easier to run new services in containers, but if you’re not sure how they’d benefit your setup, you’re probably fine to not worry about it until it becomes a clear need.

  • Very cool, thanks. I migrated from top to htop a while ago and never looked back, but I occasionally have to use machines that don’t have htop so it might be time to get familiar with the default tooling.

    Why do they say that SIGKILL bad practice? I use it as the second tap if a SIGTERM doesn’t knock something out. The link in the article is 404ing.
