Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

By doing this the connections are all severed, the RAM is freed up, and it’s all good again.

Ah, neat! I didn't think of that. You can limit the size of the connection pool in your lemmy config fwiw.

Nice, that looks like it's doing a similar thing to my weird mess of SQL and Python that I did last year haha

Good luck for the migration :)

Mine's set to 10 and it was using up 32GB of RAM so I suspect something wasn't working right there 😆

A couple of days back one of the lemmy devs posted a quick example bash script in one of the instance admin matrix chats. It didn't quite work, but someone else was inspired to write their own system and posted the code on github. So feel better knowing someone else hadn't already done the work for you at the time you were doing it 🙂
