I noticed pages were taking a bit longer than expected to load, so I ended up upgrading to a new server. It already seems faster (and let's hope it stays that way too). As always, let me know if you notice any peculiarities that might have been caused by the upgrade.

I try to help and closely work together with @jerry@infosec.exchange (who is the admin of that instance) a lot to get Mbin as stable as possible. So to glad to hear you notice the end result.

@melroy @jwr1 @arotrios @vaguerant I cannot express how awesome the mbin team has been. I have no idea how kbin.social was able to operate with that many users while running kbin. I can definitely see mbin working for that large of a user base, though.

Where was some custom things doing on for sure. Maybe @piotrsikora@pol.social can recall how they get kbin running at all back in the days with that many users.

@melroy we cache many things on varnish and CDN, and also we do many database optimization, but I think all I send to you.

And of corse many optimization in database configuration, disk optimization, PHP optimization. All best practice that I know I put there.

But if someone need help I can help with that.
