I’m trying to fix this annoying slowness when posting to larger communities. (Just try replying here…) I’ll be doing some restarts of the docker stack and nginx.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Edit: Well I’ve changed the nginx from running in a docker container to running on the host, but that hasn’t solved the posting slowness…
It would be great idea if you do that in the middle of the night when most users inactive
The guy is already providing his instance on his own cash/time, let him sleep at night. It’s Lemmy, not a life-needed tool
Lol. Is there a “choosing beggars” community here yet?
Definitely. The above comment seems to lack a bit of empathy towards the host.
Well… you can use cronjob for restart automation. Just a suggestion
Not possible when you’re actively trying to troubleshoot. This instance is running on one server.
Indeed, but I’m sure there’s more than a simple restart. Moreover, cron won’t rollback on its own.
You do realize that the night doesn’t fall in the entire world at the same time?
I was going to say this. Realistically they probably need multiple servers to allow failing over and rolling updates if we want 24/7 uptime, and that seems well beyond the scope of this right now.
To think that I got downvoted just for a suggestion, I’m just thinking if he doing it when many people active it could affected their experience on this instance. Especially for new user, some of them probably think “wow this site is slow & unreliable, maybe I can try another one”. Also this is my first day on this instance, what I got is a warm reply from everyone:)
