Wow. so before the latest influx of users this server would process about 150k federated events a day (not just posts but all activities: follows, favorites, etc). Most of this week post-influx we floated around 280k. Yesterday jumped to 410k.

I can feel it. Not the server struggling. Just the vibes.

@darius Does processing those events make it way more expensive for you to host, even if your particular instance isn't growing?

Wow. Stats on federated events consumed by our server this week:

Nov 3-5: 280k events each day
Nov 6: 410k events
Nov 7: 764k events
Nov 8 (which is not even over yet): 1.7 million events

This is a sustained increase over the course of about a week. I have never seen anything like it. Usually what we see in an influx is a one or two day bump and then dropoff. I have never seen a week of solid rampup before. This feels very different.

On Sunday night I noticed that "Mastodon" was the #1 trending term on Twitter in Portland. It was #6 in all of the UK, and #5 in Ireland.
