what kinda storage ya runnin?
if its a spinning rust drive, it could be failing. ive seen behavior like this after a big data change (like an OS install) on a drive thats on its way out. its spinning its wheels re-reading data.
prolly not the issue if its an SSD
i found containers helpful… it was simple to spin up a VPN container (gluetun), and push through any services/access/other containers (like pihole) through that. i really appreciated this because if the vpn goes down i’m not suddenly leaking my ip.
