Quote from: lmoore on May 08, 2026, 06:23:52 PMThe main reason to leave Q-Feeds to update just after midnight is to see if the Events would be cleared, which they aren't. It appears there is a hard limit of 50,000 entries and once this is reached, no more entries are recorded.

I wouldn't expect third-party Atom-based devices to have network interfaces with a vendor-locked NVM... but you never can tell. My one actual Intel 82599 (= x520) is not, but most (but not all) of my x710s are. So as you pointed out, a recommended device is a safe bet. Before Patrick chimes in, there's always fs.com for compatibles.

Other 10GBASE-T RJ45 SFP+ copper transceivers would need their own KLM to work.
