  • OK, and compared to what? “Less” is a comparison, but you didn’t specify what you’re comparing Debian to.
    Out-of-the-box RAM usage is a pretty specious metric because you’re not installing Debian (or any other OS) just to have sit there in its out-of-the-box condition. Do you think a Debian server running Apache with 1000 vhosts will use less RAM than a RHEL server running nginx with 10 vhosts?









  • I recently replaced my opener in a similar situation. Mine’s chain drive and I did reuse the existing chain. I’d be less confident reusing a belt; rubber degrades faster than metal. But, based on my experience, replacing just the belt or chain isn’t much harder than replacing the motor unit. I had to loosen my chain considerably in order to get it around the new motors sprocket. At that point, it would have been just a few more turns of the tension screw to fully remove it.
