a tangential question:

given you have a big enough hardware (since you mention ubuntu 14.04)
have you considered turning it into a "hardnode" and using any kind of
virtualization technology? openvz, lxc...

it would help with isolation and simplify things in the long run
(including having two alfred instances)

cheers!
