While checking the Magento log files of a Magento instance we recently migrated, I came across the following MySQL warning:

Memory size allocated for the temporary table is more than 20% of innodb_buffer_pool_size. Please update innodb_buffer_pool_size

While preparing a new server for a Magento merchant running Debian 12, I realized that the cron package is no longer shipped with Debian. It is still installable, but the default way of running cron jobs seems to be via systemd.
