My most recent learning - DDR4 ECC UDIMMs are comically expensive. To the point where I considered just replacing the entire platform with something RDIMM rather than swapping to ECC sticks.

Run PBS in LXC with the base on a zfs dataset with dedup & compression turned off. If it bombs you can increase disk size in proxmox & reboot it. Unlike VMs you don't need to do anything inside the container to resize FS so this generally works as fix.

AGH is worth considering because it has built in DoH

Interesting. I'm leaning more towards k8s for integrating pis meaningfully
You seem knowledgeable so you may already know, but it's worth looking at the x86 mini PCs. Performance per watt has gotten pretty close on the newer low power CPUs (e.g. N150, unsure what AMD's line for that is), and performance per $ spent on hardware is way higher. I'm seeing 8GB Pi 5s with a power supply and no SD card for $100; you can get an N150 mini PC with 16GB of RAM and 500GB SSD pre-installed for like $160. Double the RAM, double the CPU performance, and comes with an SSD.
Imo, Raspberry Pis haven't been cost competitive general compute devices for a while now unless you want GPIO pins.
