[Done] Brief outage for Pictrs upgrade today Oct 2nd 18:30 CEST is finished
Edit : OK so the outage was less brief than expected. The upgrade of the 3GB pictrs database took over 1 hour, and the version 0.4 database is now 14.5 GB... But anyway, it seems to be working alright now!
We will upgrade pictrs today, from 0.3.1 to 0.4.4. This will enable us to switch to S3 storage later on, and is needed for more anti-CSAM tools. Outage should only involve picture uploads, and should be brief.

OK, the pictrs database upgrade is taking it's time... please wait.. ;-)

It's building a 0.4 database, which is already twice as big as the 0.3 one
It's grown from 3.1 GB to over 8GB and still running...
thats a lot of pictures
And that's just his personal collection of feet pics
Don't tell them about the feetish
That's not the pictures... The picture take up 1.2 TB.. it's just the database with the metadata about the pictures. (11.8 GB now...)
I'm curious, how much storage in total is needed for a Lemmy instance like this one currently?
1.2 TB for pictures and 100GB for Postgres
For reference I run a pretty small instance. I'm at 34GB for the main database, and about 120GB of media. (Doesn't count backups)
My instance is much, much smaller though. A few hundred users, and probably only a couple dozen actually active.
Who pays for that s3 storage?
The people that donate to lemmy.world
But itβs not in S3 yet. Still on disk.
I know. Giant database = Giant Γ 10Β² amount of Pictures
