Seems to me the fear of overloading one instance over another will not happen after all.

But I do hope the Threadiverse can hit 500,000 consistent active users by the end of summer.

Give me that hopium guys! 💉

    Glad to hear I’m not totally off the mark. I wonder then if instance-to-instance transactions would cause less overall congestion than local user traffic in such cases.

    For example, if there are 25,000 users spread across 5 instances (with some overlap in community participation), would the instance-to-instance transactions needed to facilitate these users result in less of a performance hit than having all 25,000 users on the same instance? I don’t know nearly enough about databases to make an educated guess.
