Opus 5.5 helps make boat.dev VM snapshot explainer video
The author worked with Opus to render an explainer video about boat.dev's VM filesystem snapshot capabilities in parallel on a boat VM cluster using Blender, ffmpeg and headless Chrome.
when you run agents for long inside sandboxes, it sucks if it stops or crashes and you lose your work! so we fixed that I believe http://boat.dev now has the most robust filesystem snapshot system out there: - snapshots include all files, installs, rights, users, browser sessions & in-VM docker state - they happen constantly, no need to request, literally can't forget to do them - you can fork a VM while it's still running - you can bake a VM image this way that you can reuse later for all your tasks or sub-users - free latest snapshots per VM: the snapshot sizes are super small, therefore cost is low. + you don't have to pay to keep them up - 2x backup in 2 EU countries for extra safety - diff-based, incremental, never saturates you or us, always space & resources efficient, minimum failure risk - even works seamlessly with DBs (even if in a Docker container) that you're running inside the VMs - lazily restored behind FUSE for fast resumes/fork, files are instantly usable but might initially load slowly, then disk becomes local nvme speed again - still not the fastest thing ever possible but we're improving every week opus and I made an explainer video, using blender + ffmpeg + headless chrome, all rendering scenes in parallel across a fleet of boat VMs:
