Users of lemmy.today are reporting that outgoing federation of posts and comments stopped to work after the update to 0.19.1 about 19 hours ago.

A restart of lemmy software seems to have made it work again for now, but not sure for how long.

In this version its also common with CPU spikes on a regular basis. I assume its the new federation queue that takes more cpu in exchange for being more reliable. But I see a lot of Postgres UPDATE queries that did not occur in previous version. Also sometimes i see ROLLBACK, which I assume should not be happening.

Anyone else has similar issus with 0.19.1?

This post, a day before yours on the !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml community, is describing some similar behavior, with some CPU usage at start (at least on the first boot; not clear whether that is a one-off on migration from the text) and then federation problems with 0.19.1:

After upgrading Lemmy from 0.18.5 to 0.19.1, the lemmy_server process is taking up 200-350+% of my CPU....It seems like my instance isn’t federating properly now tho.

Yeah that's what we are having here too, huge cpu usage and issues with outgoing federation. Sounds spot on.

I got som weird behaviour, like nothing worked very well, with 0.19.0 so I updated to 0.19.1 and after quite a while (small instance, beefy PC) it starts to work again, it seems.

Except I am now a moderator everywhere. Maybe it doesn't work, I won't try, except asked, so can someone make a post that I can sticky or delete just to see what's happening?

Cheers!
