I have gotten a few complaints about the site being slow with ~30s load times. I did double the CPU to 4 cores the other month but I just tried upgrading again to dedicated CPU instead of shared CPU. Maybe that will help. Let me know.
Thanks,

I had to hunt for it. Meta threads and activitypub. I remember a big hullabaloo about it a while back.
I definitely noticed the bump in performance/resources the other month, haven’t noticed much by way of slowness lately. I’ll try to keep an eye out and report back! Thanks for all you do :)
I found it was a little slow, but nothing like before.
Thanks for your work to make this a great place to interact with Lemmy.
Whatever you did is working. I have no more issues.
What is driving the increased demand for resources?
I’m not sure what’s driving it. There haven’t been any lemmy upgrades since June. Maybe more users? Although I don’t know if I’ve really been getting THAT many applications lately.
In a thread somewhere a few weeks ago, someone was saying ai crawlers have arrived, and are using a lot of resources.
I was one of the few that had mentioned loading issues, but I haven’t noticed it for a week or more. It’s hard to pinpoint an exact moment because I just kind of stopped paying attention.
thanks! down to about an 8 second load for me now, big improvement
well sometimes its 47sec. i dunno. in general it seems faster
where can we donate btw?
Theres a donate link in the sidebar but I’ll paste it here: https://liberapay.com/seahorse
Thank you!
Computers are so neat
It doesn’t appear to have helped a lot, though I’m not getting a “site took too long to respond.”
Edit: as of 330pm it’s back to normal. Not sure why there was a delay earlier but it’s apparently gone now.
i’m noticing some slowness when i vainly f5 my posts to see number go up multiple time a minute 🤨
Hmm. My uneducated guess is maybe increased resources needed for federation? I’m sure lemmy.world is still growing at a steady clip. Are we federated with the meta thing?
Meta thing?
