 I spent my "free time" the last few days standing up a new sever on linode.  It's been a year or so since I've run a built my own server.  I have some potential projects popping up where I felt it was a good idea to flex that muscle again.

My current site is based on the Varbase distribution and I like the time it saves me from a development standpoint, but there are costs from a performance standpoint you take a hit.  I want to really take a day or 2 to look at Varbase vs Lightning vs Vanilla Drupal 9.  The reason I wanted on its own sever is to better evaluate perforce issues.
