If you're running on Hetzner, you might want to update your DNS settings to use some other resolvers. This can problem can manifest if you're trying to resolve DNS names that resolve to your own machines *from inside your own machines*.
I finish up the benchmarking process, and share the results. If you want to find what I actually end up using, the answer is in here!
I describe in detail the YAML and Makefile scripts that power the fio and pgbench based tests that will run on every storage provider I managed to set up

This post is also unintentionally an exploration of the amount of work it takes to switch from Traefik v1 to v2.
