ja 51b5afc8b4 feat(workstation): complete software cleanup and project organization
- Synchronized Ansible roles with removed redundant packages.
- Performed system audit (performance, boot, disk usage).
- Organized home directory by removing 22 clean remote repositories.
- Reclaimed ~21GB of disk space in ~/Projects.
- Retained dirty repositories and those without remote origins for safety.
- Updated documentation (performance tuning, software stack, setup).
- Created NEXT_STEPS.md and documented learnings.

# mw-pfeddersheim-workstation Performance Tuning
## Overview
This document tracks optimization decisions, system tuning parameters, and cleanup routines implemented for the workstation to ensure maximum resource efficiency and stability.
## Current System State (2026-02-27)
- **CPU**: AMD/Intel (High core count assumed from load distribution)
- **RAM**: 64GB
- **Storage**: NVMe (77% usage detected)
- **OS**: Manjaro/Arch Linux
## Optimization Strategies
### 1. Kernel Parameter Tuning (Ansible)
- **vm.swappiness**: Set to `10` to prefer RAM over swap on the 64GB machine.
- **fs.inotify.max_user_watches**: Increase to `524288` for IDEs and build tools.
- **vm.vfs_cache_pressure**: Set to `50` to improve filesystem cache retention.
### 2. Storage & Filesystem Cleanup
- **Docker**: Automated pruning of unused images and volumes via `scripts/maintenance.sh`.
- **Journald**: Vacuuming logs older than 7 days or exceeding 500MB.
- **Package Manager**: Maintaining only the last 2 versions of packages in the cache.
### 3. Service Optimization
- **Ananicy**: (Optional) Use Ananicy-cpp for automatic process prioritizing.
