Posting slowness issue seems solved!

Thanks to a comment by @LargeHardonCollider@lemmy.world , I checked and saw that 'Federation debugging' mode was enabled. I had enabled that when the server just started (less than 3 weeks ago) and I had an issue with federation.

I thought I had switched that off again, but apparently not. This mode causes the federation to be done in the foreground, so your 'Post' or 'Comment' action will wait for that to finish...

This solves the most annoying issue, and makes the site way more useable. There are many other issues, but we'll get there.

So this instance was able to accommodate 33k users in debug mode, epic ! This deserves a meme :-)

Nice!
- Sure is!
  
  Thanks for all your work!

That seems to have solved the upvote issue as well!
- Was that what caused the timeout error on Jerboa after up-voting ?
  
  I think it was, I don't have that issue anymore.

My brain has also been operating slower than usual recently. Please fix.
Seriously though, keep up the good work! 👍

At least it was only for a few weeks and didn't live in production for years 😂
- 19 days to be exact!
  
  Clearly a case of "can't see the wood for the trees" corking work there 👍😀

Appreciate your work as always.

Seems to have fixed the Jerboa for Lemmy timeout issue!

Oh yeah, it’s WAY better now

The best part about lemmy.world is how open and hard working our dev team is! Thank you!

So much faster now, thank you! It's always solved by some random setting you forgot to change.

Cool! I’ve noticed a significant improvement this morning!
- Yes things seem a lot snappier!

Oh man I thought that was "Just how Lemmy is…" and resigned myself to baby-sitting my posts.
Thanks for checking and correcting the issue!
BTW, as a sprout on Lemmy.world is there an official "Bug Report" mechanism we should be using?
- Maybe we should create a community
  
  This is that community. It supposed to be the meta community for announcements and questions about the server.
  The memes and random junk here is all off-topic, I hope the mods get it under control because it makes it impossible to help anyone with questions or track server announcements.

Great work Ruud!

Thx you for the quick fix !

Excellent news good job.

Great, performance is definitely improved!

Yeah, it does feel a lot better already. Thanks for your work maintaining this instance!

Awesome! Things feel noticeably smoother on Jerboa this morning. That explains it!
Appreciate you and your team's diligence. I'm glad lemmy.world is where I crash landed.
Edit: Wow that comment posted like 5x faster... Definitely an improvement!

Thank you so much ☺️

Cheers! Thank you for all your hard work maintaining the instance.

This is awesome. This isn't even our final form 😎

Where is that flag set? At build time?
- No in the admin page

I do feel that lemmy.world is much more comfy now!

I can definitely tell there is improvement. Thank you for the hard work! This place is great thanks to you and all the others like you!

Thanks for the care and attention to the community!

Sweet thank you

May all future issues be solved as easily.

Amazing! Thanks for all your hard work.

Posting to say thank you! and not testing at all

Nice! Do you notice any change in other metrics? CPU/Memory usage?
Off-topic: @ruud@lemmy.world, what is the best way to report someone to the instance admin, in order to get them banned from the instance?
- It seems to use a bit less CPU.
  You should just report the post/comment they made. The community mods as well as the admins will receive the report. If it's really bad, you could e-mail info@lemmy.world

Congrats!
Actually I am testing comment speed, but still congrats.
- And?
  
  Started getting 404 as soon as I tried to reply to you. Now looks to be working (haven't checked for a while).
  Faster, definitelly.
- Aight it's faster now, but not super fast yet. Congrats anyway :D
- I'm also here to test it.
  [Edit] For me, in this instance, it worked very fast compared to the past few days.

Omg thank goodness that was annoying me
- Me too!

Great news! Now you just need to post this to /m/programminghumor 🤣 Thank you!

thank you for all your efforts.

Hooray! And thank you.
Are you aware that creating a new account sometimes gets a spinner that seems to hang forever too? Is that related?
- As far as I know that can have 3 causes:
  Username already taken
  Password too long
  Username too long (>20)
  
  Could you have a look at https://lemmy.world/u/limbodev? I tried setting it up last night and got the spinner and no confirmation email. I can see the account was created, but get the spinner if I try to log on to it.

Ah, yep, left the debug on. An understandable oversight, if I had a nickel for how many times I've forgotten that...
- You'd have a nickel and a handle of.pocket lint?
  
  I'd be able to bury Bezos in nickels, on his back preferably

Excellent news. Thanks for your continued work.

Thanks for the update!

Thank you Ruud!

- Cue Zorro destroying the opponent with Ars Arcanum and Strike Raid.

Thank you for all the work you do for this instance!

Lekker bezig! Thanks!

Thanks to a comment by @LargeHardonCollider@lemmy.world , I checked and saw that ‘Federation debugging’ mode was enabled.
OMG, I just realized this user's actual handle after doing a re-take. At first I thought it was a nuclear physicist who had discovered the issue!
Hats off to @LargeHardonCollider. This person wins the internet for the day, IMO... ;)

I noticed the slowness when using the api, sometimes it wouldn't even respond, thank you

Thanks for the fix ! I also thought it was a general lemmy issue and not a lemmy.world one.
Edit : I seem to still have the "wheel keeps spinning, have to reload to see my comment posted" issue, is that the one you're talking about here ? But tbf it was an issue I even already had on Reddit (mobile web) so I can't be mad 😅
- No that should be fixed now...
  
  Test...
  
  Its about 1 second to post for me which is so much faster, however I don't see the comment I posted until I refresh the page (Firefox for Android)
  
  Weird then
