Is it possible to cluster jellyfin itself to improve performance? I am not talking about multiple instances of jellyfin or anything like that, I have a relatively modern intelnuc running as my jellyfin server, however its performance is bad, and I am running a kubernetes cluster so i was wondering if i could cluster transcoding or something with jellyfin so it can use more resources or be more efficient.

There is rffmpeg project which lets you use another devices graphiccard for transcoding.

Is GuC and HuC running?

sudo sh -c "cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/gt*/uc/guc_info"
sudo sh -c "cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/gt*/uc/huc_info"

I dont think its enabled. 



[spiderunderurbed@hostnuc:~]$ sudo sh -c "cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/gt*/uc/guc_info"
sudo sh -c "cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/gt*/uc/huc_info"

What part is "bad", general browsing/transcoding etc?

If its general browsing/responsiveness of the GUI then make sure that Jellyfin is installed on an SSD/NVMe.   If its transcoding, then make sure you are using hardware acceleration for codecs your chipset can handle.
