How many containers are you all running? (lemmy.world)

There is a post about getting overwhelmed by 15 containers and people not wanting to turn the post into a container measuring contest.

But now I am curious, what are your counts? I would guess those of you running k*s would win out by pod scaling

docker ps | wc -l

For those wanting a quick count.

I wouldn't expect it to matter much, idle processes are pretty cheap.

    • Idle process are not cheap: some processes avoid all disks to sleep. .
    • In Europe electricity is not cheap, a bit more than .30 euro/kwh

    What I've been doing is running a cron at a certain time in the evening, shutting down the server, and am working on a WOL sequence from my pfsense box fired by a cron, to crank it back up. Since it sits idle for 12 hours out of the 24, I just didn't see a need to keep it sucking up electricity.

    Of course, I'm not running any midnight, mass downloads of Linux iso's, and I have no other users save myself. If I had users, I'd pass the hat.
