@stefano I'm curious: What was the extra activity that OpenSUSE was doing? Do you know?

@thesaigoneer thank you for the shoutout! I'm glad it worked for you. I'm using it daily, and it's a joy. The fans are much more silent than with openSUSE Tumbleweed - because of a lot less (useless) background activity.

@pertho @thesaigoneer First of all, the Btrfs snapshot creation and destruction activity seems to be more intensive than ZFS. I haven't measured it, but while ZFS keeps CPU usage low, Btrfs puts a noticeable load on the CPU.

I'm also fairly convinced that it is checking for updates, running systemd-related tasks, and so on. It's more automated, but that’s not something I need.

@thesaigoneer thank you, enjoy your holidays, too!
Hibernation isn't that important on my minipc (while suspension is) but it's a life saver on laptop

@stefano Yes, I took the daring plunge to put it on my 'work' laptop, as I bring that along during some days. I personally find it a bit impolite to have a screen open during a meeting, so that immediate hibernate is great 💯
