We are now running the latest Lemmy 0.18.3
We are now running the latest Lemmy 0.18.3
The database migrations took a while which meant about 10 minutes of downtime between 9:09pm and 9:19pm NZT. But the site is now up and hopefully running OK. Let me know if you see any issues. I'm hoping this will lead to a more stable site, but one big issue still hasn't been resolved so I can't promise anything.
And since we're doing an announcement post, here's a couple of things to check out that I never officially announced:
-
Voyager (previously called wefwef) is a web app for Lemmy intended to resemble the Apollo reddit app. You can use any instance but we have our own hosted at voyager.lemmy.nz
-
mlmym is an alternate frontend intended to resemble the old reddit theme. As far as I can tell, this is specific to an instance, so will only work for people with a lemmy.nz account (but other instances have their own version, such as lemmy.world). You can access this frontend at old.lemmy.nz
These are both set to auto-update, so please let me know if an update breaks things because I can roll back to a previous version manually.
You're viewing a single thread.
Nice! Will be interesting to see a graph of server load & database size etc. to see the impact of the changes
This would have been easier if I had thought of it beforehand 😀
@[email protected] I can only see the last hour's stats in proxmox, is that all it's saving or are you able to go back further and show the before/after CPU load (the update happened just after 9pm tonight)?
👀
Right! Here is the load over the past day an a half or so. It graphs the average every 30 mins:
This one shows the same thing but with maximum load over the 30 minute slots:
The peaks between 1am and 4am are parts of the backup process happening.
The upgrade was done at 9:09 last night. It looks like there might be a difference but perhaps we need a bit more time to see the average.
