I heard someone mention it can take a few hours. No doubt that's been made worse with the Influx of traffic
Meta (lemmy.one)
A place to discuss or ask anything about lemmy.one's instance or moderation.
For discussion about Lemmy (the software) itself, visit !lemmy@lemmy.ml
Is that expected to be as bad for all events like comments, edits, deletions, etc?
That is a little concerning if Lemmy is struggling to scale already. Is there some reason why Lemmy is scaling so badly in Rust compared to Mastodon in Ruby?
A lot of instances are having huge performance issues with federation. Worker threads handling incoming and outgoing federation get overloaded and the queues back up pretty badly. Then you end up waiting a couple hours for posts to move, and the crazy home page "post pop-in" when a thread catches up and suddenly floods the "all" tab with queued posts.
CC @jonah:
The post still hasn't federated to lemmy.ca after 2 days. Additionally, the "hot" ranking on the front page hasn't updated in 3 days. Is there possibly a problem with background tasks on lemmy.one?
Since lemmy.one has few communities and relies on federating to other communities for engagement, having unreliable or slow federation is kind of a deal breaker. If federation can't be brought down to the order of minutes, I doubt that lemmy.one is a viable choice for a server, unfortunately.
