New update is slower? (self.general)

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.

Oh, that's a good point. We can see server versions elsewhere.

Here's a comment from @nutonic@lemmy.ml, one of the lemmy devs, to a remote community on lemmy.world:

https://lemmy.ml/comment/6801426

https://lemmy.world/comment/6173591

That comment appears to have propagated.

While I cannot say for certain that at that point lemmy.ml had already updated to 0.19.1, it was after lemmy.today had, so it seems plausible.

So whatever the problem is, I would lean towards guessing that it does not affect all 0.19.1 instances.

EDIT: Other users are talking about potential federation problems in this thread, where votes appear not to be making it out:

But as someone there points out, the first two users there put up a comment from a 19.1 instance (lemm.ee and sopuli.xyz), and their comments did make it out.

Well, as I just said here, all my comments and posts from the last 24 hours JUST started showing up on those other instances, so perhaps the problem is fixed now.

Maybe there was some sort of database backlog or something, let’s see what /u/mrmanager says.

I think it was Lemmy software stopping to federate for some reason, and after i did a restart of Lemmy, it federated everything in the queue right away. But its worrying that this can happen, and I assume its a bug somewhere hiding in the software still.

Thanks for looking into this. Let’s hope the devs will get this sorted out eventually.
