@simsa04 Actually... we also are getting more accounts opened (nothing comparable to Mastodon, of course), and the server is holding them fine. We decided 500 accounts was the maximum we would allow here (and we are quite far yet).

But I'm afraid that we are starting to suffer what Aral pointed recently, and you've commented: a dramatic increase in federation interaction, which is hurting the database badly.

These days I'm trying different techniques so Mariadb can keep with the "new rythm".
