It's great to have uefivar finally. Because sometimes the NVRAM is
full on my laptop because of dumps from failed booting and till now I
always had to boot from some Linux stick to fix it.

Compressed data in the ARC? Yes please. On a server that is primarily
a storage box that's like doubling ram for free.

Unless your storage box is filled with non-compressible data such as
pizza delivery movies.

True, but for large media files read sequentially the arc isn't
helping you much anyway.

Good point. An image hosting server would've probably been a better
example.
