I’m trying to fix this annoying slowness when posting to larger communities. (Just try replying here…) I’ll be doing some restarts of the docker stack and nginx.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Edit: Well I’ve changed the nginx from running in a docker container to running on the host, but that hasn’t solved the posting slowness…

    Since I have you here, if I start my own instance do I absolutely have to use docker? I’ve never had good experiences with it and would rather just install programs the old-fashioned way

    Any progress on this. I’ve been thinking about it too. Couple of ideas:

    Too many indexes needing to update when an insert occurs?

    Are there any triggers running upon insert?

    Unlikely but there isn’t a disk write bottleneck? Might be worth running some benchmarks from the VM shell.

      Another thought: how many db connections do you have? Could it be starved because there are so many selects happening and it needs to wait for them to finish first?
