Part 3: Chaos in Doomspace
Chapter 7: Trust Issues
To save their world from the Xaryxian Empire, the characters embarked on a dangerous voyage across Wildspace. Along the way, they joined forces with a giff commodore, helped a vampirate captain quell a mutiny, and rescued a princess from the brig of the vampirate’s ship—not just any princess, but the daughter of their enemy!
Princess Xedalli reveals that her evil twin, Xeleth, orchestrated the attack on the characters’ world in accordance with the dying wish of their father, Emperor Xavan. If the characters help her become empress, Xedalli vows to save their world.
To have any hope against Prince Xeleth’s forces, the characters must travel to Doomspace and find Warwyck Blastimoff, Commodore’s Krux’s former comrade-in-arms. Warwyck has been trying to raise an armada with the help of a mercane arms merchant named Vocath.

Chapter 6: Grave Alliance
After acquiring a Wildspace orrery at Topolah’s tower, the characters fought a void scavver named Big Momma. After that battle, Topolah mentioned a possible ally in the fight against the Xaryxian Empire: a pirate named Grimzod Gargenhale. Amid a cosmic storm, the characters laid eyes on Gargenhale’s flagship and its vampirate crew!
In this chapter, the characters come to terms with Captain Grimzod Gargenhale, who confesses that Xaryxian vessels have all but destroyed his fleet. His badly damaged flagship, the Last Breath, is all that remains after multiple engagements with the astral elves. The vampirate captain nevertheless still vows to destroy the Xaryxian Empire, but unbeknownst to him, his crew is on the verge of mutiny after their latest defeat.
Ship of the Dead
The Last Breath is a space galleon that has been reduced to 90 hit points. Unless the characters take defensive measures, the galleon comes close enough for its captain, Grimzod Gargenhale, to be heard. Gargenhale is
Part 2: Terrors of the Void
Chapter 4: A Friend Indeed
En route to the Rock of Bral, the characters discovered a derelict nautiloid drifting in an asteroid field. Only too late did they realize that another, more dangerous ship was lurking nearby, waiting to spring its trap!
A nightspider crewed by neogi has made its presence known, but the characters aren’t forced to deal with any new problems. The timely arrival of a naval patrol drives off the neogi raiders, after which the patrol sees the party safely to the Rock of Bral. There, the characters part ways with Captain Sartell, who encourages them to seek out a giff insurgent named Commodore Krux. The giff brings the characters to his spelljamming vessel, the Second Wind. They set out into Wildspace pursued by Hastain, a deadly ally of the Xaryxian Empire.
Before running this session, familiarize yourself with the Rock of Bral, which is described in chapter 3 of the Astral Adventurer’s Guide. When the characters finally arrive at the Rock, you can show play

Spectre & Meltdown

alt text

Obviously there has been a lot of chatter about Spectre and Meltdown. Here is some, limited, info about patching and mitigation from some the vendors. Patches are available for most products, with some limiting factors. With the scope of these vulnerabilities some performance impact can be expected. Redhat's Performance Team released the following information about the mitigation of these CVS on (most likely) redhat systems:

Measureable: 8-19% - Highly cached random memory, with buffered I/O, OLTP database workloads, and benchmarks with high kernel-to-user space transitions are impacted between 8-19%. Examples include OLTP Workloads (tpc), sysbench, pgbench, netperf (< 256 byte), and fio (random I/O to NvME).

Modest: 3-7% - Database analytics, Decision Support System (DSS), and Java VMs are impa
