Okay, let’s hope that a better server will solve this. I was planning anyway to move to a hoster that gives me 2 instead of 1 GB of RAM for the same price.

But I am somewhat surprised that I seem to be the first one to find out that a 1GB digital ocean droplet is not enough to host a Discourse Wordpress combo. Not even for a small community.Or maybe I missed something when I did my research some weeks ago? It appeared to me that people are generally saying it’s possible if you use swap. And, of course, in a way it is true, because it is possible. But who wants a lagging forum? So I hope people find this hint here, although it is buried in a topic that does not seem to match performance questions very well. I guess I’ll change it.
