strfry is one of the fastest databases on the planet, the relay is io bound not compute bound
Circling back on this nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s for any potential benchmarks of the Damus relay? Curious to know where it'd sit in usability if Nosflare-powered. Thanks!
Discussion
That's why I am interested in knowing the Damus relay's current resource limitations and usage capacity. I'm wondering what your current single-server's ceiling would be regarding maximum concurrent users and reads/writes throughput. Whereas, with Nosflare each user has their own isolated compute instance. I'm trying to work out at what point would strfry's single-server efficiency get overwhelmed by sheer volume, and where Cloudflare's horizontal scaling would in turn handle the load more effectively. Thanks
I don't want to scale the damus relay any bigger. I want to make my clients smarter at scaling load via outbox.
That's great to hear you're wanting to improve Damus, the client, to be more efficient. Don't worry, I'm not trying to sell you on Nosflare here. I was just hoping to gain some insight into raw figures on operational data from one of the largest relay operators. So, then I can run some calculations of my own with the benchmark. Appreciate your time.
btw I think your ln node might be down? Can't seem to be able to zap you
