[help] fix Matrix Synapse homeserver
kaesebrot (he/him)

hey, i have a very strange problem with my matrix synapse homeserver installation, maybe someone can help me debug this: i am the sole user on the server. every time I open up a client such as FluffyChat or Element Chat, the CPU usage of the connected PostgreSQL database jumps to 100%. Following this, the server starts syncing events with other servers, which can take up to 30 minutes until I'm finally able to send messages successfully.

Here are a few specs :)

  • its running as a podman container in lxc...on a proxmox host
  • the database server is running in a VM and is queried via TCP over the network, but the packets never leave the host as both components are on the same physical machine
  • i have followed all required steps from the synapse documentation to tune my database and synapse servers, but still no improvements

I'd be happy if someone could help me. Obviously I'll reward you with a Tschunk and or/food :) I'll be there from day 1. Feel free to get in touch via Mastodon @das_kaesebrot@chaos.social or DECT: 5579

thx :)
