It is unknown whether the tmp file location changes would cause any decrease, but if it does it would be due to the underlying filesystem, thus more a deployment issue.
The ionice stuff doesn’t seem to work at the moment, possibly due to a deployment issue too. It is unknown how much effect it would have really either.
By “deployment issue” I mean something external to MBS such as cgroup driver.

ok, makes sense
"Allow specifying the path to temporary directory" seems generally useful but we can probably scrap the rest
yvanzo
Alright, I will shrink this PR and attach the scrapped part to the ticket just in case, thanks for looking into it.
bitmap
👍 thanks for all your work on it

mayhem: spotify export still fails for me when using tag radio, i'll look into again.
mayhem
thanks!

bitmap: On a related topic: the alert about disk space usage during weekly cron jobs; Are there some archives we could rotate to a different volume/host? For example JSON dumps on a yearly basis?
bitmap
yvanzo: yes, we could probably do with archiving incremental json dumps (and maybe replication packets) more than a year old back onto aretha

ok, so there is the source of standalone recordings then. unless I am too tired to understand. in which case we should continue tomorrow.
lucifer
yes that is right.
just to clarify, we have multiple sources of standalone recordings.
regardless of whether we redo the dataset, we'll need to handle this in LB better.
mayhem
oh, I think i understand what you are saying. you're saying it doesn't happen on artist, but it happens on tag, even though they are fed from the same data. is that it?
lucifer
uh no, i am saying it can happen on both.
mayhem
that is what I was trying to say.
now, what I should try is switch the artist source to the new popularity dataset.
then then problem might start appearing in the artist source of lb radio. then it would make sense, and somehow the old popularity data set had no standalone recordings.
