why are there so many youtube videos about deploying a dockerized version of nginx. why do you need docker to deploy fucking nginx

is using your fucking package manager too old school, now.

in one video somebody had listed their docker images and their nginx image was over a hundred fucking megabytes. nginx is tiny!!! what the fuck do you need a hundred megabytes FUR???

nginx uses less than 10 megs of ram on my servers!!! it’s small!!!!! it has few dependencies!!!! just run it!!!!!!

@aescling Stupid question: How to measure how much RAM a program uses?

@vaporeon_ that is hard to do well because purrograms commonly allocate way more memory than they actually ever use (idk how this really works tbh but the kernel does a lot of magic here). htop will give you reasonable enough answers. if your purrogram is being supervised by systemd, systemctl status will tell you current and peak memory usage but idk what exactly it is calculating

Follow

@vaporeon_ that is all to say, not a stupid question at all really
