My relay has an insane latency atm based on nostr.watch results. I'm turning it off to upgrade to more vCPUs hoping that can improve performance a bit. Any relay operators out there that can recommend any actions to get the latency down?

want to run also one. What for resources do you suggest?
#[1] has a nice tutorial here: https://andreneves.xyz/p/set-up-a-nostr-relay-server-in-under
I've seen a couple other good resources as well but can't find them anymore..
no, I mean vps - ram cpu disk?
oh lol, I'm not sure tbh. I have been running mine on a Digital Ocean VPS with 2 gb ram, 1 vCPU and 25 gb ssd until now. Now I'm upgrading to 2vCPUs because it seems like a lot of people are using my relay.
So it depends if you plan to have yours public for everyone or just for yourself.
I’m one of those users 😀
Awesome! Bring on the world, I'll supersize that VPS to the moon if I have to.
Haha, great! 💪
Which relay implementation?
nostr-rs-relay (https://github.com/scsibug/nostr-rs-relay)
what latencies are you seeing?
my tiny relay is holding up decently but I’ll prob need to upgrade the machine soon
Minimum seen today was 3500ms, max was 13000ms
I’m kinda afraid to make mine public yet.
My relay is reporting using 0.005 CPU and 248MiB with an uptime of 17h. Despite all that, it now seems that there's a ~3000ms delay opening a connection.
