I went all in on my first foray, and set up discrete fs + auth + cpu + terms, it was fun but wholly unnecessary. Eventually I settled into fs/auth on one, and a cpu server on the side with drawterm/terms. This was all 9front, which has some niceties for networked setups, including cpu listeners for fs/auth to maintain without needing serial/gui/ssh access.

I'm actually considering taking the OS off my pi, and loading it onto the desktop I have as a CPU/file server. I can get legacy9 to boot on it, I just need to figure out how to get it to work and connect the pi via TCP. I also have though of just leaving the running system on my pi, also load it on the old desktop, and just have both boxes talk to each other. The first idea sounds more fun but I'm unsure.
