The high CPU issue that is causing midwest.social to slow way down and timeout on HTTP requests is still a mystery to me. But, it seems to do it less often and for less time now.
Here is CPU usage over 24 hours:
It’s a bunch of SELECT statements in Postgres that all seem to fire at one time and take a while to complete as a batch. I’ve inspected the logs and haven’t seen anything unusual. Just stuff federating and posts receiving upvotes.
Not familiar with hosting these servers at all but is there anything seemingly up with the DB? Large table or DB sizes?
If you want to dump the logs somewhere I can try to take a look. I work in IT as my day job so no promises but I can at least feel my way around if you would like the help. Know this is all out of your own time.
