Well I am not a developer 'per se' so this represents a deviation from
the usual expectations using a Window Manager.

The design of reiser4

differs from that pack, with the possible exception of XFS.

Even when the machine was newer there have been endemic cases when
even an accidental touch of a button triggered the EFL/E to log me out
-- in real time.

I have only monitored the machine temperature with the thermometer
utility in E. During a kernel build procedure it may go within 80% to
90% -- it has never reached 100%

Well I have replaced the fan once due to a noticeable noise ( I gave
the machine a thorough clean, too) but have not had similar issues
ever since.
It has got 16GB of aftermarket lifetime quality RAM. By experience in
other machines I know what effect bad ram causes. This is not the
case.
Obviously, I do not engage (nor like, as a matter of fact) gaming but
I do make substantial use of hardware virtualization to build my base
images -- which are subsequently customized for Google Compute Engine
(GCE)

 -- as well as to lightly test my reiser4 minimal ISO/USB Debian Installers.
