Performance on Pawb.Social specifically has been degrading significantly; it often times takes a very long time (10+ seconds) to load a post, for example, with a noticeable number of time-outs occurring. Opening the same post via its home instance in these cases typically works much faster, leading me to believe the problem is here, not with the host instance.

This is the case even with local communities.

Hoping to hear from other folks - are you also experiencing this? Is it a temporary issue, or indicative of a growing server-side problem?

I've seen issues with this as well. I don't know what the cause is, but I'm hoping there's just some minor tweaks needed.

Update: We've rolled back using CEPH for high availability due to stability issues. You can find more info from one of our sysadmins at https://furry.engineer/@NateBluehooves/110945710123522023.

It's markedly improved following the downtime, for what it's worth! Hopefully it stays that way, hah

Thanks for all you do!

I've just given the DB a kick since it seemed to be hanging on some queries that resulted in the DB locking up. I'll set it on a schedule to restart more often and see if this is a core problem with Lemmy that needs addressed, or if it's an issue with our set-up. Thank you for bringing this up!

I don't use Pawb.Social that often but the decline in performance is very noticeable through the webapp.
