Hi, thanks for this nice piece of software! I'm playing around with Proxmox 8.3 for the first time. I see that it's possible to shut down pveproxy and pvestatd, and start them again on-demand by clicking a browser bookmark, which is really nice for my use case, as it further reduces disk writes.

Now my question - will it lead to stability problems with VMs, containers, and so on when running Proxmox 24/7 without pveproxy and pvestatd started? I realize that I won't be able to access the Web UI and statistics won't be available as long as these services are down, however I can live with that as I can just click on the bookmark to turn it on again.
