It feels like the new update is slower than before. Anyone else noticed this?

Could be temporary maybe, or something that will be fixed in a update.

But i get timeouts loading pages even, and that never ever happened before.

    Ah, so perhaps there was a backlog in the database and the server wasn’t processing it for some reason?

    But yes I agree, the 0.19 release seems to have quite a few issues. Other instances have seen similar problems ever since the upgrade.

      Yeah I think the way outgoing federation works now in 0.19 has been rewritten to use a queue. So no comments or posts should ever be lost with this design, but there seems to be a bug causing the software to not process that queue sometimes I guess.

        Well, as long as a restart can get it to work again that’s at least something, but let’s hope the devs manage to find a more permanent fix.

          Back in the era of FidoNet and federated BBSes in the 1980s, it used to be that a number of BBS forums would only forward messages at night to save on telephone costs. I suppose a nightly restart to push out messages would be a bit of a blast from the past.
