Lemmy.ml is much snappier after the recent upgrade
This is just to followup from my prior post on latencies increasing with increasing uptime (see here).
There was a recent update to lemmy.ml (to 0.19.4-rc.2) ... and everything is so much snappier. AFAICT, there isn't any obvious reason for this in the update itself(?) ... so it'd be a good bet that there's some memory leak or something that slows down some of the actions over time.
Also ... interesting update ... I didn't pick up that there'd be some web-UI additions and they seem nice!
There were optimizations related to database triggers, these are probably responsible for the speedup.
For the moment at least. Whatever problem we had before, it seemed to get worse over time, eventually requiring a restart. So we’ll have to wait and see.
Well, I've been on this instance through a few updates now (since Jan 2023) and my impression is that it's a pretty regular pattern (IE, certain APIs like that for replying to a post/comment or even posting have increasing latencies as uptime goes up).
Sounds exactly like the problem I fixed and mostly caused
