The top delay on my server was 13 minutes. I need to scale up again for the next big event. #Eurovision #MastoAdmin

@rolle what are your server's current specs, if you don't mind sharing? :cinna_smile:

@nuz I might have too many relays. Cut them from 12 to 6 just now.

@rolle I gather one server in Australia blanked the #Eurovision tag because it couldn't cope with the traffic.Not a good advert for #Mastodon if some of it can't cope with large events or have long lags

@leighms It's like websites getting too much traffic, not all servers can handle it. Needs more muscle. It's not Mastodon's fault exactly and there is no "advert".

@rolle many Mastodon/Fediverse advocates like to think that it's a rival to Twitter. There are going to be some recent joiners who might have experienced poor performance on the server they're using tonight. That might affect their perception. That's what I meant by 'advert'.I get they are all different systems managed independently.The one I'm on coped brilliantly.

@leighms Well yes, but people need to be educated. Not every server has a billion dollar industry behind them. I reckon some even host their Mastodon servers on a $5 PCB like Raspberry Pi.

@rolle most users don't want to know or care.I love Mastodon and the federated approach. Perhaps some server admins will ponder how many accounts they support in the light of high profile events.The last thing I'd want to hear is people leaving because it couldn't cope where they are.Could possibly reach them and explain before they go back to Twitter

@leighms I find it strange some people don't want to know or care. Those people should not be in the social media if they don't want to know how things work. If they're wondering about the performance, I think they do care. If not, good for them."Twitter mindset" doesn't fit to the Fediverse. If one dislikes the diversity of servers and performance, one is better off elsewhere.

@rolle if you are a behind the scenes person that makes sense.How many people who use any social media understand how anything works?I'm guessing less than 0.1%.

@rolle @nuz might also benefit from spreading out the Sidekiq stuff. From what I have heard and seen written up, dedicated Sidekiq workers/threads for each Sidekiq queue seem to really help keep one queue from bogging down another.I missed your earlier specs thread, I'll respond with my info later. :)

Well, I had pgtuned stuff for earlier version before scale up... half of the kick was left unused. Gotta more careful next time around.
