Intermittent 500 errors Wednesday 9th November 2022 18:35:24
We are seeing intermittent errors on the Mastodon site. This is the result we believe of scaling up to cope with increased delays to our content processing. We are working to increase our database processing which we believe will resolve the issue.
We have been able to make some tweaks to our existing infrastructure which has helped to minimise these issues. At the same time the number of concurrent users on the site we believe has dropped as the night has got later, which has reduced the number of issues we've been seeing. We are planning to increase the site's scale tomorrow.
