Site slowness and upgrading (midwest.social)

I have gotten a few complaints about the site being slow with ~30s load times. I did double the CPU to 4 cores the other month but I just tried upgrading again to dedicated CPU instead of shared CPU. Maybe that will help. Let me know.

Thanks,

I'm not sure what's driving it. There haven't been any lemmy upgrades since June. Maybe more users? Although I don't know if I've really been getting THAT many applications lately.

In a thread somewhere a few weeks ago, someone was saying ai crawlers have arrived, and are using a lot of resources.
