@Viss @foone there is some method in the madness. if you've got a lot of transient video data, and you need access to a rolling window of it (either for buffering/stability purposes or for realtime analytics), storing it to disk ends up costing a fortune because you'll end up running headlong into DWPD limits on drives and having to swap them out constantly. but with RAM there's no such wear. for a few hundred concurrent clients you can do it on a single consumer desktop PC worth of RAM.
