Hi to all the new followers, but I’ll be migrating to .ie server in thr next week or so, so come find me there. Name in the box thing on profile (sorry, still learning). I’ll try to manually copy over follower/following to new server too. This is jsut fair warning.

This scaling discovery is another case study in using the wrong tool for the job. Mastodon relies on postgres, which requires careful tuning. https://mastodon.social/@fields@hachyderm.io/109373956025645684 Most of these database servers are written with the expectation of running on dedicated machines, with a dedicated admin configuring resource usage. For use with co-resident applications, you need something smarter like OpenLDAP and/or LMDB.

I'll be migrating my account over to another server the few next weeks, once I figure it out - I will find you all again!

And I’m not forgetting the most important #UnseenHeritageHeroes cave archaeologists on our excavations, who brave the dark underbelly of our island’s palaeo/lands - our magic team - Phil Kenny, Clare Ryan, Louise Callan and Keziah Warburton. #IrishCaveBones
