the alternative would be to have less dockers running on it but let's be realistic
@noiob you could still set sshd to have a high I/O priority value so it gets first dibs on handling things
if it's a systemd service, you can use the IOSchedulingPriority setting or the Nice setting

@clarfonthey that sounds like it'd make my life a lot easier, thank you!
it actually managed to recover, I'm amazed
