Brief outage for Pictrs upgrade today Oct 2nd 18:30 CEST - Lemmy.world

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… ;-)

how’s it faring? 👀
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
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…)
Who pays for that s3 storage?
The people that donate to lemmy.world
But it’s not in S3 yet. Still on disk.
