It transcodes it based on how you set it. I have it on default

@Moon
I assume it's better for CPU usage when serving AP activities because it doesn't have to create it, just queries the db and serves it?

@solarsailor
I thought it should be usef to some latency since the initial release was all the way back when SSDs weren't a thing (I think)

@Moon
Mastodon seems to be more efficient with DB usage than Pleroma, however since server has NVME all the queries are mostlikely CPU bound which means it could perform worse.
I might copy the DB to my PC, spin up VM to test it first.
I have a NVME drive and the same CPU architecture so it should show conclusive results.

@solarsailor
I have 3 3900X threads. I don't think it should handle it ok.

@Moon
How big is it a CPU hit? My Masto VPS only really gets pinned when someone posts a bigger non x264 video and it starts transcoding

100GB Masto backup takes up 17GB and 40GB Misskey takes up 5GB. I'm pretty sure pg_dump doesn't include indexes though.

Yeah, but it barely works as a phone and the hardware is weak. Even if the project matures I doubt they will make a powerful phone for it.

Thanks for that. I'm going to look it up. Normally I wouldn't touch Postgres at all.

Is it worth it making a ZFS partition with compression for Postgres in order to save space? I assume since it's mostly text it should compress fairly well.
Or is there a better FS for compression?

@thatbrickster
It won't and it sucks since the ARM laptops are basically phones.
@Rynach

@xyfdi I think it is but I'm only on tier 4. It's starting to get more grindy.

@r000t @EnjuAihara @dead_man Porn, school and family photos are on Nextcloud, the rest isn't backed but it's not that important.
