I no longer have a shadow to test with but something like:
echo  "d tag^routine \n h" | csession [instance] -U %SYS
You need Unix passthough authentication to work.
Managing and Monitoring Shadowing might help you find the data you want

The affected class is not part of the required install for Cache 2018.1.5.659.0 or IRIS 2020.1.1.408.0.

I would search filesystems for JndiLookup and log4j.

The ^DATABASE routine in %SYS allows you to edit the size. Sizing a CACHE.DAT avoids the on the fly expansion that would otherwise happen. Some people thought this would be a performance benefit.

Looks like you can set charset to UTF-8 using the docs here. You might need the full version to do that.

What charset do you want to use? That may be the issue.

I use putty too.

Intersystems has worked hard but encryption is not free. Do you have something like batch processing? You would notice an impact more there then on a 1 second query. I would worry more about key security and recovery. Encryption also has a serious impact on the ability of modern SAN storage to dedup and compress which could result in higher than expected storage costs.

You might look at this tool combination for the last journal file.

Convert Journal Files Using ^JCONVERT and ^%JREAD

If you have not already, migrate to solid state disks.

It is weird that the page Vic recommends does not mention that.

Check Startup namespace for the user in ^SECURITY maybe.
