On Saturday July 22, 2023… the SysOp of Lemmy.ca got so frustrated with constant overload crashes they cloned their PostgreSQL database and ran AUTO_EXPLAIN on it. They found 1675 rows being written to disk (missive I/O, PostgreSQL WAL activity) for every single UPDATE SQL to a comment/post. They shared details on Github and the PostgreSQL TRIGGER that Lemmy 0.18.2 and earlier had was scrutinized.
No. Care to explain please?

In layman’s terms please?
What are you asking for? lemmy.ml is the official developers server, and it crashes constantly, every 10 minutes it ERROR out, for 65 days in a row.
