Is it bad to run a long-running process on a server in a Gnu Screen session?

Question

I have a long running process that currently logs output to stderr, and I'm just starting it up and leaving it running on the server within a gnu screen session on the server, which I just detach when I logout of the server and reattach after I log in, if I want to see what the process is doing.

Are there any drawbacks to running a long-running process this way?

Answer 1

Screen is designed for this. So no, there are no real drawbacks this way.
