rather than shrinking the size of the barrels would reducing the stacking not be an alternative option.

It's change the dynamics of storage/train based transport without affecting belts/inserters

Since I work with servers all day here are a few suggestions.

1) stop buying consumer grade hardware!
2) go and buy a datacentre grade SSD. They tend to come rated for a number of drive writes per day - 3 dwpd is the full capacity of the drive written 3 times a day every day for several years ...

Real lift aluminium production involves large quantities of electricity. We could ...
