| Subject: | [gentoo-dev] how to use spare server resources |

| 1 | I own a dedicated server (i-3770, 4 real + 4 HT cores w/ 3.4 GHz) with 16 GB RAM and 2 x 3 TB hard disk, 1 GBit/s network. |
| 2 | |
| 3 | Currently 7.6 cpus do run idle at 1.6 GHz (cpu governor ondemand), 10 GB RAM are unused and 4.5 TB disk are not even allocated. It might be that I oversized it for the current purpose. |
| 4 | |
| 5 | I'm wondering how to use the spare CPU cycles. Compile-test of the kernel ("make randconfig") made sense in the past, but during the last few years it became fruitless. Currently I do polish my BOINC rank for Einstein@Home and World Community Grid. |

| 7 | What came into my mind; what's about chroot's test scenarios and so on. Any ideas and/or links ? |
