Hi, I started my discourse forum on a digital ocean droplet with 4 gb ram 2 vcpu 60 gb ssd. My site grow and in certain moments users got the message “due to extreme load, the site is shown as a logged out user”. It’s a sport site and it happened on some events with a lot of interest. I think the …

if you have 4 cpus and 8gb, you can probably get away with 8 unicorn workers, also be sure to give 1gb or ram to postgres.

You may want to wait as some bad code was checked in that added multiple N+1 and N+2 queries cc @sam will latest have the fixes yet?

Latest has the latest fixes, but as a sport site you may simply be overloaded. 2 unicorns does not sound like enough, for 250 active non anon users you would need more web workers.

Thank you, which size do you suggest? Is it enough 8 gb ram and 4 cpu? Unicorn numbers will auto update rebuilding app?

[imagen] sam: also be sure to give 1gb or ram to postgres. how I can check this setting?

Re run ./discourse-setup and it will make the app.yml adjustments based on memory and CPUs detected.

Si tienes 4 CPUs y 8 GB, probablemente puedas usar 8 workers de Unicorn. Además, asegúrate de asignar 1 GB de RAM a PostgreSQL.
