The relay was consuming about 5 CPU cores simply trying to service instances that no longer exist.

Perhaps even more interesting is that steady state operation of the relay is taking about 20-30 3.8 ghz CPU cores

@jerry Gotta get it running on GPUs instead

@jawnsy I don’t think it’s ported to run on a GPU, but that does have me thinking about the less expensive 80 core ARM servers that Hetzner offers

@jerry oh, that was just a dumb shitpost. how many cores does this stuff need? we used to get by on 640 kb of ram, blah blah, decline of society, blah blah, damn youth

@jawnsy when I started the relay about 18 months ago, it got by on a 6 core server. Now, it is taking a good chunk of a 96 core server.

@jerry WOW. That's a lot of CPU usage!

@jerry Thats crazy. Is the relay software well optimized? I cant imagine why it needs so much resources
