https://www.jabber.de/ausfall-der-dienste/ MattJ: a Prosody issue?

Licaon_Kter, an upgrade to the new mod_pep (which supports persistence), but it was using the internal (file-based) storage which is not really adequate for thousands of users :)

Spent some time last night helping to migrate it to a database

oh

MattJ: oh, lessons learned?

I think things are better organised now, e.g. it had community modules dropped into Prosody's source directory (bad practice, a nightmare when it comes to upgrades)

mh how did you migrate from internal to external?

I wanted to use PostgreSQL soon actually. But now I think to migrate now xD ✏

Arne, mod_migrate

thanks again

you all are very cool

thanks for hosting this chat

and doing what you do

hosting our conversations and whatnot

MattJ, interesting, we’re using the same mod_pep setup with plain files and it hasn’t caused any issue that I know of.

Maybe you have more Pidgin users than Conversations users?

Prosody was using 100% CPU just churning through reading/writing OMEMO stuff to files

Oh, on a slow HDD I guess?

We now have about twice as many Conversations users than Pidgin users, progress!

Congrats!

But Pidgin is still close second, with every other client being almost irrelevant.

What depressing statistics…

ouch

I'd have expected Gajim having also lots of users.

Nope, not at JabberFR.

Like 40 max at a given time.

(Out of like 800.)

Ugh

Martin, our stats are public fyi: https://stats.jabberfr.org/

Thx

Someone sent me this. I thought it was funny https://upload02.xabber.org/e7bb98903308a97a4dd6f4b0dbea25af51c3180d/5IXeRETr/image_293.jpg
