Unclear reason, slrpnk.net is also effected.

Edit: Doesn't seem like an active attack, but rather a database overload issue caused by someone deleting their old and previously very active account, and those deletion requests being federated out to other instances as well. At least that seems the most likely theory right now.

Edit: seems to be mostly resolved, but I hope there will be a bug fix to prevent this from happening again.

That explains why I had a sudden burst. I use pgbouncer between Lemmy and the DB to help with connections, which seems to be the biggest problem. However, I had some values flipped. I had my max set to 180 and the min set to 190. This caused issues. After I resolved it, it was fine.

My DB supports up to 197 connections.
