It's more that Proxmox has a weird niche laying between both enterprise/small-medium business and also homelab infrastructure.

Ceph is designed towards the former where 10Gbe fibre and hosts with a boatload of RAM is fairly commonplace.

My problems were a result of not paying close enough attention to those requirements and just hoping it would work on small micro PCs with 12GB of ram.

    Yeah, but even if that's the case, I would expect it 1) to refuse to run at all if something's not fit or 2) to just be bottlenecked by the network instead of making data disappear altogether.

    Oh, to be fair the data disappeared because I was stupid for a different reason and proxmox upgrades were done out of order.

    I'm basically 100% to blame for the data loss, but it was impacting performance from an IO and memory perspective before I fucked it all up.
