Not sure whats the bottleneck but lately its been pretty slow to open comments on posts from other instances
I think I might have identified a possible cause for this, but it will require some down-time to fix.
Very fast for me from world to slrpnk.net if that’s a helpful metric.
it’s especially problematic with .world posts for me
There shouldn’t be too much delay for you: https://grafana.lem.rocks/d/bdid38k9p0t1cf/federation-health-single-instance-overview?orgId=1&var-instance=lemmy.world&var-remote_instance=slrpnk.net
From my perspective, slrpnk.net is occasionally very slow to respond… and then, after 5 minutes, fast again.
Basing on what I read on the “support” chat channel via XMPP, the server recently had major hardware trouble. I would guess that everything isn’t fully set up yet.
