My advice: If you really want the performance boost and you think a recent snapshot will provide it, make sure your backups are good and test the snapshot on comparable hardware as best you can. I usually restore the dump to a similar system, then boot from a snapshot bsd.rd and choose "Upgrade",

I've got a Toshiba NB305 netbook that's been my daily-use laptop for more than 6 years now. The last fresh install I did was OpenBSD 4.9-RELEASE in early May 2011. I've been quite happy with how it works, and I've been doing bsd.rd upgrades and M:Tier binary updates ever since. There is a lot of

I've been able to run most *AMP stuff on OpenBSD/nginx/php_fpm. I've not tried librenms before, but the major hurdle for chroot is usually the mariaDB socket. I overcome this by setting up mariadb to bind to localhost and setting up a user on 127.0.0.1 to force a TCP connection instead of sockets.
