I think it depends heavily on how much storage you're allocating, if you allow uploading media that is. From what I've understood most of the bottlenecks are in DB operations so CPU and memory definately play a role.
Good point. I forgot about media.
I wonder if I made a LAN lemmy instance if I could use it as a lemmy cache server.
Is there a such thing as a cache only server? If so I'd love to sign up as being a cache bitch and help out!
I was thinking if I made a personal instance I could use it as a local "cache".
I've not looked to see if it's possible, but a lemmy instance with posting disabled would be effectively be a cache server - all reads, no writes, except for sign ups, I think.
sounds about right
